San Antonians Get Creative for Twitter's #PoemYourCity

Like the hilarious #GrowingUpinSanAntonio trend a few years ago, the Twitterverse recently created a #PoemYourCity hashtag that had locals describing San Antonio in the best way.

While outsiders might not fully understand the poems, Twitter users shared their most creative and puro SA poems about the Alamo City.

Some went the taco route...

Even the local universities got in on it.

Trinity is the city's best colegio
Just blocks away from the best tacos at El Regio#PoemYourCity #SanAntonio

But a few couldn't keep it to just one reference.

#PoemYourCity
We have The Spurs if you like basketball
We have four season in a week
Winter spring summer and fall
We remember the Alamo
If you are going the speed limit
You are going too slow#SanAntonio

In San Antonio we speak Spanglish. Tenemos mini tacos con radish. We have George Strait and boast that our Alamo is great. We have winter 6 days a year and Fiesta where dudes get stuck with a spear. Gracias, SA what did I say? Pues andale, puto y orale, buey #PoemYourCity
