Fill the Lona Lord
The paddle wheel rests
on Suwannee's shore
Fill the Lona Lord
Brother Fountain
is counting
on you
to carry him across.
This photograph was taken on the eastern bank of Lake Lona. Lona was once deep and full and they say a steam boat of some sort floated upon it. Rev Fritz Fountain, the interim pastor of Bronson Baptist, a friend of mine from his daughters working at JCPenney with me, lives on the southern bank. That is the reason I used his name, simply taking poetic license that he needs a way across. The western bank is on the Suwannee County side.
It is a take off on the song, Fill my cup Lord.
