Rocky and hard,

Stand

Still

Rocky cement you cut into my hand

And make me all 

Mad and sad

Angry and frustrated

But I still like you because you hold my house up,

Good and strong

You give me a path to school as

You run along asfalt

You used to be liquid but now your

Solid and strong

Cement, wherever you are and not

You are a strong soldier who walks 

Through new places

You got where asphalt can’t 

You run,

Skip,

Hop

Around the world 

Waiting,

To find something new 

And beautiful in the world

You make 

Bridges,

And towns;

You make 

Basements,

And sidewalks

You are a leader
