Abuja

Abuja 

A city of a thousand hills 
Resplendent in beauty 
Symbol of a nation's unity 
The center of its glory

Basked in the morning light 
A vision to behold 
Cuddled, the topography 
Landscape so alluring 

Protected by smouldering rocks 
Great and small, ever serene 
Concealing the opulence 
And might of its power brokers 

A city of a thousand networks 
Passageways and connections 
An undulating cityscape 
Where networking has become an art

A city of a thousand gardens 
Celebrated for its grandeur hangouts 
The skyline, ever bright 
You will find your place

A "Symbol of a nation's unity" Abuja stands as a model city for Africa. It's a sort of a meltingpot where almost all the ethnic groups are represented.I like the poem and the city.
