It was a morning of beginnings
The Sun rising in an upward arch
Traveling East to West
In a semi circle of radiance
Bringing sunlight to the blueness
Of a clouded sky

Forms shadowed in obscurity
Usher in structure
To the mighty towers of concrete and steel
That adds foundation and utility
To the people who call this city home
There is an optimism of hope
That permeates the core of this bustling metropolis
Where seventeen million people
Give birth to the excitement and opportunity
Of a new born day
