St Paul's Cathedral

A solitary wren perches on a perfect arch And warbles a pitiful tune A domed silhouette is cast against the moon The faded cerulean crown Pillar upon pillar, arch upon arch Magnolia marbled magnificence resides amongst concrete But where history and metropolis meet St Paul's stands tall The Whispering Gallery conspires your name In such a harmonious chorus Oil upon canvas and Renaissance clay St Paul's stands another day Great Tom shines in solitude Concealed in your embrace Melancholic chimes reign proudly over London Admiration and pride etched onto your face.
