Like some Loch Ness monster Stretched across this stream, Shining silver cassons,seen, Emerge from inky swirling surface, Flashing lights of red and green. Vivid yellow gigantic girders Pinned black at corner fulcrum, Crane writ large with tonnage sum, Paint crinkle the historic skyline. Leaving specks, we mortals, dumb. Below the average waterline A semi cylinder stands guard, Image clear where river marred, Where water rippled at tide change, Reflecting night time starred. This sentry, stood at ease, Though wide awake with computer aid, Alive to sudden weather raid, Allows the metropolis to sleep As fear of catastrophic floods fade. THE EIGHTH WONDER OF THE WORLD |
