Hot Child in the City

I hear footsteps hit the pavement.
The light shuffle of flip flops.
The clickity clack of high heels.
Laughter dances with the wind.
An ambulance siren wails.
A homeless man’s cup jingles.
Tshh tshh tshh.
“Spare a little change?” he asks.
A car door slams, a doorbell rings.
“Delivery!”
The neighbor’s feast arrives.
Nearby a violin plays,
the melody makes me smile.
Often there’s so much, so quick, so many…
Listening brings a moment of peace.
So do the open windows.
