Sacramento Sun

Unlike the city out west where I reside, Grass really is greener on the other side Air conditioning is a must in the summer Without it, the long hot summer is a bummer Without it, you best pray for an early winter No, it's not a necessity; it's a 'no brainer' In a valley where it seldom snows and sometimes freezes, We experience many cool summer nights from delta breezes With a deserving reputation as ' The City of Trees', We have lots of trees to keep us cool and shady Sacramento is sometimes called The River City. That’s because two major rivers run through it Major airlines and railways; so board a plane or a train Two major interstate highways also run through our city You can go North and South by way of interstate 5 Or take I-80 East to Chicago if you really like to drive I-80 West will take you clear to San Francisco without a rest That’s where I came from before I made Sacramento my address 12292016 PS Contest, Sonnet about where you live, Silent One 3rd Pl;FB
