Tuesday Evening

The barbershop is buzzing;
My guy is running late.
At home, my dinner’s waiting;
I am hungry, which I hate.

The traffic out the window
Zips by quickly, heading home.
I sit and watch the city breathe
And write my daily poem.

Tuesday Afternoon has faded into night. ilene can be found thinking of something new to write. A simple recollection of all the daily do's. A pleasant prose of phrasing to share the daily news.

'The city breathe' -- intriguing... And as a visitor from the farm known as Chicago, I could only hear NYC wheeze. (All those buses, construction, and noise 24/7). ~ Hick from French Lick
