The Island

.The
.awe
that
.you
.feel
.when
.coming
.up from
.beneath
.the street
.awakens us.
A hustle here
.a landmark there
.the concrete jungle is
.alive and well. Was that a
.celeb, star or hero? Maybe?
.In the city that never sleeps
.a respite can be had with me.
.A moment in the Park, or at a
.pub. Take the subway or bus
.downtown or up past mansion
.or museum, a statue or a store.
.Our history blends with all of
.the world’s people who arrived
..through four hundred years.
The Brooklyn Bridge a first you
.see, Lady Liberty, Wall Street
..Empire State, Times Square,
…Macy’s Parade and much more.
…..Manhattan was bought for $24
……its worth now unknown. For me
…….it is home and proud to say
………I would not want it any
……….other way. Through
………..thick and thin, loss
………….and win. A New
………….Yorker knows 1
………….thing for sure,
……………good real
……………..estate.
