Crooklyn

Brooklyn, New York is my hometown,
There's always something going down.

So many different places, Religions, and races,
Walking so fast you'll only get a glimpse of their faces.

A huge melting pot located in the County of Kings,
Where the sirens of firetrucks, ambulances, and cop cars sing.

Good Old Brooklyn, where the great times never end,
There's a Pub or a Bar within a block to make a new friend.

Concrete filled city where you had better be fast paced,
Better keep up with the hustle and bustle or find yourself misplaced!

Prospect Park has the most peaceful views,
Where there are hills of grass to take a snooze.

Greenwood Cemetery is the place to be,
To rest your head eternally.

Have some syrup mixed with shaved ice,
Our Pizza is like Heaven in a slice!

Buying new clothes or getting those new kicks?
Brooklyn can accommodate your shopping fix!

Biggest population in all of New York City,
People are Smart mouthed, sarcastic, and witty!

Here in Brooklyn you will find the fun times never cease,
Don't forget while you're here to check out the 18th Ave Feast!

There's a Bodega on every block,
Where all the crackheads seem to flock.

Graffiti covered streets and walls,
Parks filled with courts for handballs.

Coney Island is the place to be,
To ride the Cyclone and smell the Sea.

Nathan's Hot Dogs are famous for a reason,
Best part is they're open every Season!

Crimes so old and frequent it's been called "Crooklyn",
At the end of the day, it's my home, I Love Brooklyn!

well done, but do visit Paris, where 24/7 there is a place to go where people share your mood for the moment, or you are alone in a beautiful place with your thoughts! Aloha! Rico

My favorite part: Biggest population in all of New York City, People are Smart mouthed, sarcastic, and witty! I grew up in Poughkeepsie and Hyde Park and ALWAYS feel back home in NYC amidst the fast-paced crowds. A great write! Fave!

Wow! You have described everything about that borough so thoroughly with appropriate rhyming. If only the Dodgers would move back!
