New York City - My Home Town

People from all over come to see the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. Men, women, children alike – all say it’s a most beautiful sight. Every year they search for the tallest Christmas tree And decorate it so carefully. There is nothing left to chance – there must be bulbs on every branch. This tree is a symbol of our right to be free Put up each year for the world to see. It has become symbolic to us like the Thanksgiving Day parade New years on Times Square which are the things That AMERICA shares. Every dream that you perceive – in NEW YORK CITY can be achieved. There are centers of every kind- where dreams become alive The diamond center, the garment center, the art center too And that’s just to name a few. The United Nations was built on these grounds Where every language can be found. NEW YORK CITY where I was born and raised I give you thanks and I give you praise. © LRams
