Exceptional May you show up to show off again Ode to New York City by Debbie Pope Ode Poetry writing prompt entry Artwork by supergold at FanArtReview.com

The city that never sleeps Is resting . . . testing the grit of its endurance. Crying . . . for those dying, laid to rest in unmarked graves.  Dreaming . . . scheming ways to survive and surmount. The city from which so much is expected is sleeping . . . weeping But wait, the City of Dreams  will awaken . . . shaken, yet its spirit not forsaken.   Writing Prompt Write an Ode poem. It is a poem praising a person, place or thing. Recognized Author Notes The City of Dreams is one of New York City's many nicknames. Thanks to supergold for the image of the Freedom Tower.
