A Home Just For Me
Original Submission by KaLani Cunningham
A Home Just For Me
San Francisco, where I love to be
The city that glows with sunshine and pink lemonade skies as I wake A home just for me
Swirling from Embarcadero to Lands End as a playful breeze
Whipped cream waves the ocean makes
San Francisco, where I love to be
Noodles, birria, mac and cheese, and boba milk tea
Gyros, matcha, and berrylicious cake
A home just for me
A beautiful and rich history
Inclusivity and community that’s difficult to break
San Francisco, where I love to be
Nature blooms greens with fruits and flowers for bees
Pebbles skipping gracefully across many lakes
A home just for me
Sights for every type of person to see
Everlasting memories visitors can take
San Francisco, where I love to be
A home just for me
