May Moments 2

Here by the edge
Downtown district;
A heartland survives


So many moods
Flavours that stretch;
Activity distracts


All sorts of trade
In brisk commotion;
Cash now plastic


Buy and sell
Your old junk here;
Fools fill full


Old signboard
Humours offbeat;
Tourist cameras click


Old antique shoppe
Uneasy display;
Haunting aura lingering


Take a sure peek
Look at old things;
History sighs here


Further down
This street facelift;
Old ways and new clash


Wet market stalls
Fresh produce vie;
Customers explore wares


I waltz by
To find something;
Distraction collides


Old and new
New and old ways;
Sobriety alludes
