Lilypads afloat,
But motionless. Overhead,
A storm-clouded sky.

Scrollwork in cast iron
Defines the building facades,
Shadows the city street.

An urban castle
Rises above busy streets...
Early evening.

Forty years ago...
My first job, making new friends...
One still in my thoughts.

Walking on Broadway.
Music rises from a basement--
Piano, sax, drums, bass.

I don't need the sun
At night on Broadway; neon
Is more than enough.

Small waves in the pool
Distort lines on the bottom--
They shake, bend, and weave.
