This is an excellent poem and thank you for choosing my artwork! The description of downtown magic makes me want to visit! Perfect rhyme and meter. Love how my art works with it!

You did a great job of describing the sense of place
of your old NY, Judith. I enjoyed reading your poem. Great
job with the smooth flow, the rhymes, the image, and
the fun message.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

Judith,

This is just a fun one about enjoying a quiet moment in time amid the hubbub of a big city. I liked the French doors, tin ceilings, good book and a tabby cat. Fun.

    There goes one of my two reviews. I wish other people got the chance to read my work.

    I know. It sucks that you have to "promote" to be read. Do you want me to stop reviewing? I became a fan so I get a notice when you post.
reply by the author on 21-Sep-2022
    No, I am glad you enjoy my work. You should review as often as you like. Maybe like myself many writers simply don't do reviews very often.
reply by Susan Newell on 21-Sep-2022
    Okay.

    It is a bit mystifying to me why people glom on to only a few writers and become " fans". I guess they need that for psychological reasons. But this is just a writing site. And there are over 400 writers

    If I read something I like, I become a "fan" so as not to miss something new. Otherwise, I'm apt to miss something I would like to read.

Beautiful rhythm and rhyme scheme. You seem like a natural and I have a feeling that you wrote this with ease, a natural talent if I had to guess as a complete stranger with no clue. Anyway, excellent poem! Keep up the good work. Good luck to you!
Best,
Resa

    I try to keep my verse very simple and honest. My great inspiration is the songwriter Bob Dylan. I try to emulate him

I think the old New York City is the fondest one in my memory. It has changed, but maybe hope for revival? Sending you my best today as always for this marvelous poem,
