City Farm

This ‘moving to the country’ is getting out of hand The city has it all, where supply meets demand Each block has a deli Enough to fill a belly And that’s what we call ‘living off the land’!

I'm in complete agreement with you on this one. The rhyme is perfect also.

I lived in Chicago, zoink. International delis sprouted like weeds everywhere boy, I live in a small town now. Delis…serpentine point zero. But it’s wine country with civilized people . I lived in SF in the 70’s, fab! Most of us won’t go near it now. Chicago? I prefer Isreal. Both my former cities transformed into hell holes. My poem on courage happened in SF. I am spunky if I see others harmed in words or deeds. Pangie

I agree... I couldn't live somewhere without shows, cafes and bakeries. I'm a city guy. Well done my friend. Have a great day.
