City Park in the Dark


Tourists in white sneakers 
Take a seat
Park train toot-toots
Reggie the waiter on flute
Rocks a jazz beat


 Full moon glows
Spanish Moss floats in  Live Oak Trees
Latin rhythms sweeten the breeze
Lovers whisper
Some come  to sober up
Oye, como va 

Still Lagoons reflect soft light
Beignets  powdered with sugar just right
Café au lait best of all
Come to the Morning Call
City Park,a magical place in the dark
Mystery made nightly
New Orleans style
