For today's prompt, write a city poem. You can make the title of your poem the name of a city and write your poem. Or you can mention a city in your poem. And, of course, you can just set your poem in a city without naming which one it is. It's also okay, if you're more rurally inclined, to just write a poem about them city slickers. As always, have fun with it. — Robert Lee Brewer, Writer’s Digest
#yeahTHATgreenville
Our city has a hashtag
because apparently there are Greenvilles
in 34 states
(and a couple of states have more than one?
that’s confusing)
but we think ours is the best
with our waterfall and its gorgeous park
in the middle of downtown
and the miles and miles of trails for walking, biking, and hiking
for our four distinct seasons
and our location just a couple hours away
from either mountains or beach
for our vibrant arts scene
and fantastic restaurants
— there’s always something new —
a reasonable cost of living,
and being a great place to raise kids
I’ve lived in five other cities
and even traveled abroad a little bit
but Greenville, S.C., is home.
Yeah, that Greenville.
