A/N: This is a poem that I wrote a few months back for one of my poetry class in uni. It is dedicated to London, the city I was born in and it explains what it means to me. Enjoy!

The Heart of Great Britain

Walking around the streets of London –

London, the heart of Great Britain

Black cabs are driving around while

Vast crowds of people are flocking towards

The attractions like the London Eye and

Even the Natural History Museum –

One of my favourite museums ever

God, I would like to go there again…

Despite the fact that London is

Always thriving, this place is

Where I normally go just to

Loose and find myself

A/N: To be honest when writing this poem I had the thought of London being like a second home to me even though all my life I’ve been brought up in Essex, which isn’t all that far from London itself. I would like to hear from you on what you think of this poem.
