NEW YORK AT NOON by HORTENSE KING FLEXNER

First Line: THE CITY BURROWS TOWARD THE SHADE
Last Line: ON THE SILVER-BRISTLED SWINE.
Subject(s): GEOGRAPHY; NEW YORK CITY; TRAVEL; MANHATTAN; NEW YORK, NEW YORK; THE BIG APPLE; JOURNEYS; TRIPS;
The city burrows toward the shade,
The metal peaks and turrets shine,
And Beauty's hand rests unafraid
On the silver-bristled swine.
