old revised poem

My city

You are the light that keeps us bright

You are the one that casts away the darkness at night

You are filled with lefts and rights

You give us the best of sights

And at night you become our rainbow

You are filled with colors from head to toe

You’ve given us so many and sorrows

Yet, you are the one that gives us hope when the times are looking low.

Your subways and streets are filled with music, art, and performers

You are the best for visitors

As you give the best there is to offer

We are glad to call you a transformer

As you change our lives forever

You are the city of hope

You are the city of dreams

You are the city that never sleeps

You are New York City
