In the Library of Bmcc

Surrounded by heavy tomes Chronicling the history of countless generations One can only feel a sense of awe that the weight of the past has upon the living A brief look around me allows me to see the coming generation Working diligently to achieve their goals What will become of these youth in the next few years? Some may die fighting on foreign shores Otheres will die young due to bad habits Some may achieve great success Picking up my pen I try to evoke the scene in the library of the Borough of Manhattan Community College Where many different nationalities Merge into a quilt of hope!
