One City Street~
A plastic meadow pretends to belong
on a comfortable street,
where nostalgia grows flowers
neatly in rows,
and nearby houses
collect the living
for others to appraise.

DeleteYou should turn this into a song. "where nostalgia grows flowers" - i imagine myself and my girls singing that in the car.
ReplyDeletethis had flow and emotional impact
If only I were able to write music... perhaps I will learn how to do that one day, for now it would require collaboration (which I am not opposed to) in order to make it a reality.
DeleteThank you Lance :-)
