St. Bernard School

It thrived there,
Hard by the docks,
Amid clamoring trucks.
Within its gray stone walls
Black habited Sisters and Brothers
Educated the many children
Of the truck drivers
And those who worked the docks.
It was here that the young were imbued
With a deep abiding faith
That sustained them for life.
