'Heal better than men'

“Above the town

lie its mountains —

ravaged by over-

cutting:

dark growth,

and hard wood,
But the mountains are open

in their sleep and

aloofness.

They heal better

than men.’’

— From “The Town That Ends the Road,’’ by Theodore Enslin (1925-2011), a long-time resident of Milbridge, Maine
