Breakfast on Broadway
When a friend’s in Manhattan,
Amid all the din,
A breakfast on Broadway’s
The way to begin.
A place near the theater
Where she has to go
Means a leisurely stroll
Will lead right to her show.
The food will pass muster;
The booths will be large.
The waiters won’t rush you,
So you’ll be in charge.
The crowds won’t be there yet,
If early you meet,
Making it much more civil
When crossing the street.
Then after your breakfast,
Once she gets on line,
You’ll stroll north on Broadway
To Arts and Design.*
The day’s just begun,
But your stomach and heart
Will be filled with the comfort
This meal will impart.
