Lines Written While Watching Tv News

Keeping up with what is happening in the city 
Murders, car accidents continue to plague us 
  But there are some hopeful signs 
   The arts are flourishing 
Poetry, sculpture, paining, theater 
   are all coming forth 
These revive tge spirit 
    give us hope I the
face of darkness
    All ethnicities live through their cultures
      In New York city they blend together
And form an amalgam of peace and love

They do say that, New York is like California; so much diversity; how can people not get along there? I do love the arts and they are quite diverse there, as well. A wonderful poem you've penned about The Big Apple and hope offered by those there.
