The Tiger City's Symphony

Writing a poetry about my city. Just for fun.

THE TIGER CITY'S SYMPHONY

In the Tiger City's vibrant realm, a tapestry unfolds,

A cityscape of dreams, where stories are told.

Nestled in the heart, 'neath azure Philippine skies,

A symphony of bustling streets, where life intensifies.

From Makati's embrace, it rises in grandeur and might,

A flourishing haven, etched in urban delight.

Skyscrapers ascend, like sentinels tall and proud,

Piercing the heavens, where dreams are allowed.

Through Mandaluyong's veins, Pasig River does glide,

A lifeline of history, a tranquil river's guide.

Its waters whisper secrets, from bygone days,

Revealing the city's essence, in nostalgic haze.

Where Ortigas' hub beckons, a center of commerce,

Entrepreneurial spirits dance, ambitions immerse.

A fusion of opportunities, a tapestry unfurls,

Where dreams take flight, and destiny hurls.

Streets alive with rhythm, pulsating with life,

A vibrant medley of sounds, amidst the city's strife.

From the hawker's call to jeepney's lively roar,

Mandaluyong's symphony resounds, forevermore.

In tranquil pockets, green havens delight,

Where families gather, basking in nature's light.

Parks and weekend markets bloom in splendor, offering respite and cheer,

A refuge from the urban bustle, ever near.

Oh, Mandaluyong City, you wear your pride with grace,

A mosaic of stories, interwoven in every space.

A testament to resilience, to progress embraced,

Where dreams unfurl their wings, with infinite grace.

So let us celebrate, this city's vibrant hue,

Mandaluyong's essence, forever shining through.

A symphony of life, in streets that never sleep,

Where dreams take flight, in Mandaluyong's keep.
