Cemented In Time Poem by Ima Ryma

Warren Brothers from Boston, Mass.
Were cementers of sidewalk scene
To walk upon by lad and lass.
One job done in 1915,
A year that World War I be fought,
But not the U.S. as of yet,
Where life seemed to go on as ought,
Impatience watching cement set.
Warren Brothers, to advertise,
Placed a marker upon their job.
It was an age to modernize
The walkways that were walked a gob.

Soon soldiers walked there more and more,
As the U.S. entered the war.
