Into Work
Heading towards the
community college
I get on the bus
slide in my Metrocard
and I'm off
Passing stores and pedestrians
Watching the busy moving
traffic on city streets
Life in the metropolis
is something fascinating to watch
Soon I will be surrounded
by hungry (to learn) ESL
students
Before heading into the
college
I stop off for eggs with
tomato, salt, and pepper
And later imbibe
a large green tea
This "fuel" keeps me
going for the day
Been working
for a decade and a half at the college
No students yet
So I pen this poem
and dedicate it to
the hardworking people of
New York City
