The Meaning of Saratoga


                                         The Meaning of Saratoga 

Words are just letters

Pieced together like a puzzle

Its meanings, 

just more than the simple descriptions of words

The meaning of Saratoga

Is of a hillside residing near a quiet river, 


But to me….

Saratoga is the place I’ve always known as home. 


The little city, with its small unique little shops lined up against each other.

The city is home to all kinds of trees.

The city where education is valued more than anything.

Saratoga is the place I’ve always known as home. 


A place where others stop to help one another, before helping themselves.

A place where others aren’t afraid to change if it makes a difference.

Where people gather together,

Enjoying those little moments of life.

The moments that make life so beautiful.

Whether it’s taking a stroll with your family,

Or watching a stranger play a melodious tune in front of the symbolic

Memorial Arch.

Saratoga is the place I’ve always known as home.

What does Saratoga mean to me?

It means more than just a hillside residing near a quiet river,

It means home, it means family.

The warmth it emits,

The happiness I feel looking around this wonderful city,

The memories I’ll always have,

A community, I’ll always be proud to be a part of.

Saratoga is the place I’ve always known as home.

  • The Old Bench

    She runs down the path to the lake by her old school. 

    Every day she comes there, for one reason. 

    To see something. 

    A bench...it stands by the lake. 

    Serene and frail. 

     

  • What Do I Think

    I want to live life without flaws.  

    More specifically, I want to live life without any regrets. 

     

    When I was five, I used to look up to my sister. 

    I still do.
