The Mid-Atlantic Village Gathering, Inc.

We thank you for attending this gathering

and all of the previous ones!!! 

 

“The End Of The Line” It’s a long drive to Virginia Beach To a Hotel by the sea And we hoped down deep within our hearts, This ending wouldn’t be So many years ago they met In a small town by the sea And that is where it all began This GREAT MAVG. The Woodlands was the first event They rushed to get in line. We had to see Ms. Lit-Town And get our pieces signed The Show & Sell and Swap & Sell Were crowded to the doors Collectors paid whatever price The vendors sold it for. What the Dickens & Dickens Exchange Were there for us to read For pieces that we hunted To complete our frantic need Where else in all this crazy world Would have a Village Mill? And it didn’t bother you to spend Two thousand dollar bills The banquet sold out months ago You’d kill to get to go So swap your soul for tickets Don’t even count the dough! The night air fills the Woodlands “Room Hopping” we all scream From door to door we cram our bags Just like on Halloween! But that was then and this is now The seasons came and went And friends we’ve made for life is worth Each wondrous fortune spent And now we pray to hear that toot The chugging down the track And hope that train makes one more run And brings our Gathering back All Aboard !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by Bernie Dvorak an Annapolis Villager
