An Unforgettable Cosmopolitan Fun

Queens County is the right place to be
and have an unforgettable cosmopolitan fun;
right here, in the Fresh Meadows Park,
where international competitions are held even after dark;
see the fabulous tennis players: Serena and Andre' win their trophy; 
the summer day will flee as their speed, but this memory won't be gone!


Ever wanted to see the world in a small place:
come here and meet all peoples,
hear their music and dance with them swirling around as a dancer!
These events promote World Peace,
getting all races together and appreciate what they have to offer:
only then we realize how similar we are in dreams and ideals! 


And besides entertainment, there's lots of food:
each ethnic group we'll greet you by welcoming you in their tent: taste
some of their delicacy, it'll delight your palate;
oh, they'll smile and thank you for having come as a friend, not a stranger;
and kids will surround and hug you by teaching a new word...
isn't this an occasion to meet young people who will remember you forever?
