Jigsaw Puzzles 3

Bus stop sensations
Where's the bus?
Tardy connection

~~~~~~~~~


Old contact hearsay
Not much to say;
Silent confrontation

~~~~~~~~~


Frangipani sunrise
Pink, yellow, white --
Magical moments

~~~~~~~~~


Smoky stray wind
Grim echoes;
Stale air descends

~~~~~~~~~


Shoppes in decline
Ancient wares loiter;
No takers

~~~~~~~~~


Evening settles
Noisy commotions fade;
Mahjong excavations!

~~~~~~~~~


By this old quay
Modern face lifts greet;
New watering hole

~~~~~~~~~


New dreams stacked
On old faded sites;
Cool revolution

~~~~~~~~~


Play school toddlers
Exchange play things;
Rude awakenings

~~~~~~~~~
