The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely

and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns there were so many people that the lottery took two days and had to be started on June 26th, but in this village, where there were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took only about two hours, so it could begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the villagers to get home for noon dinner.

What is the poem booked future about​
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

The different uses and perspectives around books, and the power they have in our future.

Explanation:

This poem by Celo Kulagoe, published in "Some modern poetry from the Solomon Islands" (1975) describes the way the Teacher, the Preacher, and the Dealer introduce her to books, and how the way she chooses to approach them might have a great impact on what the future hold for her.

For example, the preacher says to "follow this narrow trail," which might represent the limited scope of religion on knowledge and science, something that the author seems to want to avoid, as she longs for the wisdom provided by books.
