Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGHGHEIEI JKLHLHJJ K| You are a painter listen | A |
| I'll paint you a picture too | B |
| Of the long white lights that glisten | A |
| Through Michigan Avenue | B |
| With the red lights down the middle | C |
| Where the street shines mirror wet | D |
| While the rain strung sky is a fiddle | C |
| For the wind to feel and fret | D |
| Look far in the east great spaces | E |
| Meet out on the level lake | F |
| Where the lit ships veil their faces | E |
| And glide like ghosts at a wake | F |
| And up in the air high over | G |
| The rain shot shimmer of light | H |
| The huge sky scrapers hover | G |
| And shake out their stars at the night | H |
| Oh the city trails gold tassels | E |
| From the skirts of her purple gown | I |
| And lifts up her commerce castles | E |
| Like a jewel studded crown | I |
| See proudly she moves on singing | J |
| Up the storm dimmed track of time | K |
| Road dark and dire | L |
| Where each little light | H |
| Is a soul afire | L |
| Against the night | H |
| Oh grandly she marches flinging | J |
| Her gifts at our feet and singing | J |
| - | |
| Have I chalked out a sketch in my rhyme | K |
