Recent rain has fallen on the slick city streets, And redbird has suddenly abandoned the fast life! Downtown still throbs with the city's heartbeats, Like vast fields, in the time of red butterflies. Varicolored and ever-changing, as untamed nature, In its endless movement, charm, sights and sounds, As sleek cars whiz past, carrying a hint of danger, In a merry watery world, which vibrancy surrounds.
