Vancouver

Vancouver
the most beautiful city on earth
that's where I am from

where the beaches stretch out against the backdrop of
verdant undulating mountains that seemingly touch the warmth
of the gradient coloured skies

this is the place I call my home
born and bred
nurtured and fed
and my loyalty lies with this patch that exists as a
microcosm on this spinning ball that we call earth-

I don't want to be anywhere else
I love the seasons as summer melts into fall
fall melts into winter and winter melts into spring

Vancouver
the most beauatiful city on earth
that's where I am from.
