A view from State Street snagged from my parents vacation a few years ago. I vicariously live - paint - their best images! I wrote a poem for them to go with this scene. It’s called, “Away with you in Boston.”
Away with You in Boston
In a tapestry of old and new
I was happily away with you.
On an adventure from a long-held dream
With gratitude we took it all in it seemed.
The Towering buildings which proudly stood
with stories upon stories cherished by our brotherhood
were also our witnesses and the hosts of our time;
Our new history forged and now written in rhyme.
The pavement gave way to the path to State Street,
And staged a new attraction that it cannot beat,
And which I’m glad to share and happy to be cast in
The poem entitled “Away with you In Boston.”
