New York Day
Had an old-time New York day –
Took the bus to see a play.
Understudy for the star –
Still, the show was up to par.
Dinner in a lovely place –
Food and beer we could embrace.
Friendly waitress and, a plus –
Cool young couple next to us.
Conversation quickly flowed,
Even though we’d not helloed.
She – Jamaican, he, a Swede –
Classy, hip and fun, indeed!
For dessert, some key lime pie;
Bid our friends a sweet goodbye.
Caught the bus and headed home
To capture it within a poem.
