Northside Carpeting

The hum of machines has ceased,

And the Southwest Library is at peace,

With its fresh, new carpet underfoot,

It's time to move to the next pursuit.

Now the Northside Library takes the lead,

A new project to fulfill their need,

With the same passion and dedication,

The workers start their new formation.
