A little bit of Brooklyn fell <br /> From out the sky one day- <br />And landed in Corona <br />Near the subway and the bay <br /> <br />And when the mayor saw it <br />Sure it looked so green and fair <br />He said suppose we fund it- <br />And condemn the junkyards there <br /> <br /> <br />So they issued us some tax free bonds <br />To make the grandstands grow <br />And charged too much to sit in them <br />even up in the last row <br /> <br />'It has a brick rotunda <br /> Makes one think of Ebbets Field <br /> And once they sold the naming rights, <br />They called it... 'Citifield! '<br /><br />John F. McCullagh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-little-bit-of-brooklyn/
