City of London


Beguiling beauty
Never dulled by time
Never tainted
Overstated
Oh city of mine

The backdrop to my youth
My eternal canvas
My inspiration
Flirtation

Tempted I may be
By the lure of Central Park
Yellow Taxi cabs
Walk don’t walk
Hot bagels and coffee shops
I compare thee not
To this city
Oh city of mine
As confusing and complex as I

Do you know how beautiful you are at night?
Listen to me
Like no one else
Keeper of all my secrets
Silent
Serene
Will you still protect me
