Scurrying people
windy city wind whistling
Wet animals flee
Blue thunder, silver slick streets
Hued blooms close their perfumed rooms.

Lewd Louie came from Windy City
he went straight for the nitty gritty
	got fresh with Margo
	who told her man Beau
who kicked his a** with rhythmicity

Chicago

I like to spend time in Chicago  
on old Oak Street beach along Lago 
Michigan.  There I can
watch girls tan and hear a man 
talk of his windy city long ago.

Oh, the team that has brought so many cheers

            to the fans who followed them o'er the years

    "Losable Lovers"

     of Windy City fame

            Generations of heartaches and tears.

Premium Member 3am In a Windy City

sitting on the corner
in a cold and windy city
I wrote a little verse
I think - more of a ditty
It had a subtle lilt to it
a bit terse – a bit witty
of a troubadour too cold to sing
Oh, Lord, it is a pity
sitting on the corner
3AM - in a windy city

glittering New York
time Square looking great—but oh!
grand Central Station!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
the Windy City
diversity of cultures
Chicago—my home!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
San Francisco Bay
place where people work and play
my dream—going west!

Windy City

The powerful, upward thrust of the skyscrapers The sinewy curves of the lake and the river The throbbing pulse of the trains and the traffic The musky scent of the hot dog carts And the sultry moans of a feral saxophone echoing through the streets. Yes, Chicago! You are a sexy beast!

The Big Windy City
Is what people call it
Truly is lovely
But sometimes loud and bustling
The honking of horns
The screeching of brakes
When you look up you see the big Willis Tower
Looming down at you
Turn and see the cob
The one shaped like corn
The amazing museum
Science and Industry
Field Museum
The Art Institute
Even a small Swedish Museum
All in one city
Called The Big Windy City
