Beautiful city bathed wih flowers

with an essential sound emitted by the

water that as a cascade touches it everywhere.

This city is history, present and future.

A variety of colors and flavors that as yesterday

today represent what its community is in origin;

and as its founders, it opens its doors and

wihout vacillation embraces us with genuine emotions.

Beloved Providence, how grandiose you are

and the way you inspires us with immense love and tremendous fervor.

Poem first published on 6/3/12 and dedicated to the Ciy of Providence
