Emma's Poem by Linda Glaser

At that time, the Statue of Liberty
had nothing to do with immigrants.
But Emma knew that immigrants
would see the huge woman
when their boats arrived
in New York Harbor.
Wouldn't they wonder
why she was there?
What might they think?
What might they hope?
And what if the statue
were a real live woman?
What might she think
when she saw immigrants
arriving hungry and in rags?
What might she feel?
And, Emma pondered,
what would the statue say
if she could actually speak?
Emma took up her pen
and began to write.
