SUNSET OVER VINTON, LOUISIANA
 The sunset over Vinton
oh, what a sight to see.
Reminds me of the people there
and what they mean to me
I haven’t known them very long
yet a lifetime it seems you see
For Vinton’s just that kind of town where folks can live their dreams
A friendly town, to say the least
where folks work hard each day
And everyone knows everyone
that’s quite a town I’d say
Their radiant faces, hearts of love
bring smiles to every face... Yes, this sunset over Vinton is as beautiful as this place... by Mary Manard
