Angelo often wonders
just what people
from the burbs
and the country
do in their spare time.  

Do they putter around
in the garden?  

He’s heard they have gardens.  

Perhaps they go to the mall
and walk around.  

He’s heard
that many go there to think,
and get some exercise.  

It’s all a great mystery to Angelo.  

Angelo only knows
what goes on in town.  

Bobby

Angelo is correct in his wondering ponderings!

That's what we do! lol

Thanks dear Linda,

Angelo will be glad to hear that.  He's a person that always likes to be right about things.

Thanks dear Ida,

Yes, Angelo has been around all over the place.  It just took a while.

A lot of the younger children here in the hood have never seen grass.  When they are taken to Fairmont Park, it sometimes is a frightening experience for them.  All that green stuff, reaching up to grab them.

Love Bobby

I think that Angelo might find
We're just like every other kind.
We hanker for a little fun
And no regrets when life is done.  Joyce

Yo c_fuller,

I plan to die here.  I love Philadelphia.  It's my home, full of my people.
