i saw him there
rounding the corner
that young man winter
carrin’ his bag to check
in to a second story room
in the old neighborhood

This is so essential Oregon, yes? The rain, the cafe, the street, the gray sky… At least it is so in my imagination!
This looks like a great story to me – perhaps a mystery. What is in that bag, and where is that young man going?
And he came forth from a one-way street, in the opposite direction.
Awesome! This photo almost makes me want to go shopping. Almost…
…and all of a sudden there was this chill…Great poem and words!
I wonder where he's going…
I feel the dampness …
Miss Nancy,How I have missed you!! (Catching up to myself from this move–finally.)This image and poem make me think of the Beatles for some reason. And doesn't that gal look like she's dancing?!Blessings.
I can almost smell that wet pavement. You have a wonderful eye for colors and moments. Cool poem too!!
