Charleston Charm – Original Poem

By Mark A Leon

Charleston, a city so historic and grand
Where the past and present now stand hand in hand

With cobblestones streets and colorful homes
It’s a place where the soul always roams

From the Battery down to Rainbow Row

Charleston’s charm continues to glow
With gardens and fountains and history in sight

This city’s beauty makes the heart take flight

Magnolia Plantation and Middleton Place
A glimpse into the past and South’s grace

The music and food, a blend of many
Charleston’s culture is unique and plenty

A city known for hospitality and manners
Where strangers are met with welcome banners

Charleston, a place that stole my heart
Aplace where memories will never depart

So here’s to the city of Charleston, SC
Where the past, present, and future all agree

To a place where love and history entwine
A city that will forever remain sublime.
