I am passionate;
Full of adventure,
And maybe a little gritty.
I am Detroit.
I am artistic,
With a love for music
And maybe a little strange.
I am Detroit.
I can be tragic,
And although I’m beautiful,
I have imperfections.
I am Detroit.
I am unique.
I think out of the box.
I have a big voice.
I am Detroit.
I am strong.
And though I may stumble,
I will persevere.
I am Detroit.
A little poem for my friends – you Detroiters will appreciate it most, I think.
