The Loss Of The Libraries Costs More Than We Save!

Normally I wouldn't write a poem for this blog, that's my other one, "The Poetry Beneath", but this is an issue I feel strongly about and after all this IS my blog. I was so moved watching kids check out books today at Ford where I volunteer.

Library Fines

The library is no
laughing matter.
Without librarians our
education only gets sadder.

Books are written
necessarily to be read.
Without reading, learning
surely must be dead.

Bring back the librarians
to give our kids a chance.
Without them how can
our MCAS scores advance?
