A town in Ohio, suburb of Cleveland,
takes its name from the river
that runs through its heart.
The town and its waterfalls
are referenced in a song
by Canadian rock band
The Tragically Hip.
I’ve never been there,
and I guess I never will.
Which is a matter of some regret.
Give half a chance
I’m sure I would have loitered
in the Fireside Book Shop,
with its three floors of books.
Greg, I like the way that you avoid using the 'c' word in V3 to illustrate the title. Clever. I wonder how many of these towns (Malice comes to mind) are there, names after emotions and the like?

Thanks for the Likes, Jordyn, Hope and Stephen!
Great news about the bookstore, JD! I must check out the song. I saw the name on a list of WOL users in the first few hours of February, and thought how wonderful it was.

Thanks, Graham. Just one of those spots I will never get to - even less chance of doing so these days. But it got me dreaming about the place, and in particular, the bookstore.
