Men
Are working hard to
Construct a new library. They
Have just begun.
In the past weeks, they have cut down trees.
Now they are leveling the ground. The noise goes on
Endlessly.
Sometimes the ground even vibrates.
Mrs. Kesterton’s class
Bulldozers are big machines. The men
Use them to push dirt and rocks.
Lately we hear
Loud, vibrating sounds when the bulldozers
Dig and smooth the ground.
On our way to class, we noticed them
Zipping around.
Everywhere. Trees have been moved and their
Roots have been thrown out.
Mrs. Joseph’s class
Why did they tear the trees down--
Oak trees, pine trees—
Ripped out of the ground? We
Know that they have to
Erect a new building. Machines
Roll over the
Soil to level the ground for our new library.
