Notes About The Poem

Baltimore

Bleeding as purple as the Ravens jersey with pride
A city so welcoming, fittingly and adoringly...
Labeled "Charm City," and "B'more"; this city is much more!
There's no dull moment or sight
ln this wondrous place. There's so much to see!
Most definitely livable...and not "rat-infested"! 
Orioles tweet for this "Birdland" at the break of dawn
Receptive to tourists with open arms. Just like...
Every American city, imperfect, yet always prosperous!

Baltimore is in my proud State of Maryland--it is a lovable, livable, charming port city of gourmet restaurants. A lovely poem you wrote Edward..I feel your pride. You must be a resident near here.
