a quaint old town i pass in my commutes
lined with cafes and rickety-stores
slow life thrives in its cobbled stones,
tantalizing me with its hidden tones
half a mile of this utter bliss, teases
my mind to explore more, corners
where he knows me -and i know him
no one remains a stranger for long.
if i could stop and blend in,
gossip and smiles would welcome me in.
i long to savor and drink in
sites and sounds i once knew, flourished in.

Lovely post UL. Well composed!!
Poignant - I've felt this way so many times - you write the feeling very well...
Something that I can identify with ... the slow train chugging into the city... with the memories closing in.
Wow..that was lovely
Great minds think alike, don't they? :)

Loved those lines best. The whole thing was gorgeous though. You perfectly described so many little towns that I've passed through.
Beautiful, if slightly sad.
