New Jersey The Garden State Poem by Suzae Chevalier

In NYC where the buildings are tall,

so much to do, no time for it all.

Now across the Hudson River

is a much smaller state.

I hear there are very hard working people

who make this Garden State great.

Now the water in New Jersey

used to be Pristine,

It came out of underground springs

that was very CLEAN.

Oil refineries, and power plants to this date,

destroy Jersey but make NYC great.

By lighting up all their tall buildings

making it the City that Never Sleeps,

but hurting Jersey without anything to reap.

Lets bring back Jersey as it was in the past,

rid the state of it’s pollution that cannot last.
