When the sun comes up
The fog envelops the bridge
It all makes me proud

As I walk the streets
I seem to know everyone
We are all from here

The sun goes back down
The city goes to back to bed
I love it all here

The author's comments:
I feel a tremendous pride when I talk or think about my home town of San Francisco, and really the whole Bay Area. This inspired me to write this series of haikus, and I hope that even if you're not from the City by the Bay, you will enjoy this. Feedback appreciated!
