Antes da performance de "Beautiful Day", uma garota da platéia subiu ao palco e leu um poema que Bono entregou à ela, que tem o título de 'The Garden'. No final da leitura, Bono recitou um trecho com ela:
O poema é obra de Susie Kerin (1870-1952). Trata-se de um trabalho publicado chamado Poemas de Sunny Colorado.
O POEMA:
The Garden
Near the mountains
Is a lovely garden
Denver, beauteous
Haven of the west
Through her welcome arch
The tired tourist
Finds an oasis
Of peace and rest
In this garden
There is always sunshine
Happiness, good will
And blessings are rare
Rising in a cloud of benediction
To descend in frangrance
Through the air
May all those who wander
Through this garden
Breathe this air
From yonder snow capped crest
And enjoy
Each happy restful hour
And the sun sinks
In the golden west
