Old Library Poem by Paul Reed

Old Library



Gently, silently
You await your fate
Slowly, steadily
Your walls abate;

The walls that once
Sheltered us within
Lined with knowledge
Volumes thick and thin;

Who will remember you
When you are gone
Whose minds will you fill,
Rest your memories on;

Once a warm and light place
Once a safe retreat
Now pieces of paper
Blowing down the street.
