Wonder in Solon \\ Samuel Friedman

Usually felt observing the depths of the Grand Canyon

Or seeing the geysers at Yellowstone with a companion

There are many places across our country

Where wonder can be felt so strongly


But there is only one domain

Where wonder is so common that it becomes mundane

It surpasses the feeling inside

After even the most intense Cedar Point ride


This place is called Solon


Many pessimists may see this place

As yet another suburb without a special face

But in actuality it is the epitome

Of a wonder inducing city


Laying eyes upon the middle-class homes

It is clear that Solon even wins in comparison to ancient Rome

Looking at the beautiful retail stores

Can amaze even the people who think everything is a bore


Everything in Solon causes admiration

Especially the forever existing Chick-Fil-A temptation

There is even a magical feeling within

When looking at the elegant Solon Inn


There is no other way to experience the seasons

Than to sit in the middle of the Solon Region

Within an hour

The weather can switch from sweet to sour


This change will leave you in shock

As there is no possible way it can be a mock

Solon is truly a place that is unique

And this isn’t subject to the smallest critique


All jokes aside


I have a secret I must confide

Solon is not wondrous for what can be seen

And a reason that can only be realized by someone who’s keen


It is that in Solon when we are younger

It is most wondrous that we have the luxury to wonder
