Magic Show

Sunlight pours through my window It's time for the show to begin Trucks, cars, pedestrians The city awakens Now we'll taste joy In the knowledge that we're part of the metropolitan machine We'll finish putting up buildings, churches, synagogues, parks and museums as the beat - beat - beat- of the asphalt homeland begins to pound out ists music Such, such are the urban joys

Glad you like it my friend. I do hate the city and long to live in the country here I can breathe. God Bless, JB
