Urban City of Angels duck pond amidst turmoil where the homeless sleep morning paper harbinger of good and ill I’ve no time for it. grey high rise shadows dandelions thrive in cracks no more garden here rain slicked boulevard life in neon jungle colored potpourri ten cell phones ringing relaxing cup of latte’ at Starbucks Cafe purple vinca blooms nobody seems to care a grid-locked freeway wild horses roam stampeding metal ponies smoking along the way life in a ghetto blossoms of graffiti on a fog-wrapped morning Poetry is: |

Cher...Very nice...Paul It brings to mind a Merle Haggard song " Big City Set Me Free" Give me the good old country where song birds awaken you instead of horns and such. [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (09-29-2002 04:00 AM).] |

I walked by StarBucks a few times back in December, when I was there... AND...I sat on that silly gridlocked H5?.... I agree.....the quiet mornings and the doves cooing is much more enjoyable.... Nicely done Cher.. |

CSKpoet - I'm also glad I'm not in the concrete jungle. I love the mountains, desert, and calm of them... BC |

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Cheryl, I too can't stand the concrete jungle, sweet friend, I would rather live as Tarzan in a real jungle than walk down Broadway and see people pushing their clothes in their shopping carts and heat babies crying in a homeless mothers arms! (sad sigh) I too am one with the country, sweet friend, this is excellent, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Cheryl, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
