Siesta in the mellow afternoon.
The citrine sun draining into city lights.
A well-known street, an unknown city.
The Moon River under a clear night sky.
The movies that were never made.
A drifter coming back home, looking around the bend.
A Street band playing their songs on the Chapel stairs.
Applause in the darkness.
Memories of the land of golden sands.
Colored kites in the summer wind.
Silent squares and shuttered shops.
Strangers in your night.
Friendly voices in unknown languages,
The girl from Ipanema, living next door.
The happy cobbled street, and the board which read,
“The Starfish Sonata OPEN till your eyes close.”
