Brisbane (A Poem)

Brisbane

Beauty is all around

I look out upon the bay

Star lights, city lights

Reflections, shimmer

At the water’s edge you can see

Majestic landscape

The city of Stars

It never sleeps-always on

I have the best view!

I was told that Brisbane is called the “city of stars” because of when the rail roads were being built in the area. The workers would lie on their backs and look up at the stars because this spot is a micro-climate, we don’t get fog here so it’s the best view in the entire San Bruno and San Francisco Bay area. Although I can see some fog over San Francisco from my bedroom window I have not experienced it here yet. Wikipedia tells a different story. My guess is that they are both true.
