Suddenly and extemporaneously
Without being sick tremendously

Timely FragmentsOld Jambu tree
Still bearing fruits;
Generous delights

NDP crowd
Massive tapestry;
Community celebration

Each passing year
Affirms our country;

Fireworks display
After The Pledge;
Poignant philosophy

Politics means action
Mere words concede;
Happy results...

Dominates the city
