My kind of town

The City of Chicago

Burning coal, steel factories, by the western side of the five lakes--
Smoky trees, wind on sails, scenery nearly overwhelming;
Lamps and lights, so bright, create a mirage.
High rise construction, a stairway to the sky;
Outside the country museum, cars like a river.
In front of restaurants and temples, waves smack the embankment;
Turn around stores and mall, competitors vie for marketshare--
Newly built skyscraper, as high as the clouds.

Chicago is located at west side of the Great Lakes.
There's a street with so many bright lights.
Inside the city there are museums that show the countryside.
Sears Tower newly built, the tallest building in the world.
