Dekalb’s Blessings

I am blessed to call this town my home
Through corn and barbed wire
The lagoon I so admire
I am blessed that I am not alone

Huskie spirit runs deep and strong,
In pride’s embrace, we all belong.
From Ellwood House to art that’s shown,
DeKalb’s warm embrace, our passion’s shown.

Rocky Horror at the Egyptian
Before and after my transition
Community dinners on a monthly basis
Makes Dekalb feel like my Oasis

In DeKalb, where friendships bloom like flowers,
Amidst the farms and quiet hours.
From friendly faces to wide-open spaces,
This town, my sanctuary, endless graces.
