finding Blue Stone road

the young
people, new in the neighborhood
want the road,
the cut through
to the highway
to the outside world.
they have
new babies,
new cars and homes,
new
marriages.
the cut through would
save minutes,
at least.
but the old folks,
don't want Blue Stone.
Blue
Stone would ruin everything,
they claim.
the trees,
the stream,
where will the deer
and fox go?
where will our grandchildren
play.
the world
is always this way.
given time, things will
change.
