New York, New York

I miss
the delectable food
street hot dogs
central park views
people watching
broadway
I miss you New York, New York!

I don't miss
the smoke filled air
defiled streets
polluted skin at the end of the day
noise so loud I couldn't hear myself think
Starbucks sightings everywhere

I still miss you New York, New York!

I miss the
bustling fun
city night lights
tourist sites

museums galore
street fairs
I miss you New York, New York!

I don't miss
bumping crowds
traffic hampers
summer heat

blistered feet

manure smells

I still miss you New York, New York!

I miss feeling lonely surrounded by millions.
I miss the friends, the laughter, and all the good times.

I miss you New York, New York!

It's time for a trip back to the big apple!

...and I promised Mathew I'd take him there.

Looks like I'll see you soon...New York, New York!
