Le Madam
She is most like her age
Time having eroded some of her natural beauty
A few warts have appeared here and there in spots
Yet there is this blend of young and old alike melded into one
She has transformed herself from bilingual to multi-lingual
Despite this her character has little changed over a long existence
The night life she relishes still as vibrant as ever
If she was a building one would say she had age and charm
Her busyness belies her serenity
Blessed with a deep history she exudes confidence
Allowing her to grow and prosper
Into whom she is today
Nothing can dampen her spirit it seems
Though sometimes turbulent periods have been had
Through it all a humorist slant developed and enjoyed by many
Her name Montreal
