This was written on my day off, enjoying the outside music at the Gazebo Cafe during the Jazz Festival. It was a magic Sunday. --Susan*
Sitting here on Decater Street Listening to the Blues Sipping down Jambalaya Juice Trying to catch a groove Magic blooms in colors here People exuding their auras Hiding every ounce of tears For a fading heart_ what horror! Red beans and rice Strangers...nice Dogs dining in with the guests Frosted drinks, a Hurricane All New Orleans best This mystery city competes today With a living Hell Placing a beat back into a heart Just where a blossom fell Its magic what a city can do To a broken heart With music and color and laughter It brings together what's been ripping apart The soul of a woman in sufferage Who loves laughing as well as the Blues Who sits with the smile of an angel While walking in others' shoes This city can make into miracles The oozing of hearts torn to Hell Color in the hole that is missing Just where a blossom fell.

Sounds emit from your words. Blusey and sad and exotic. Sweetness dappled with a bit of downhome spice is what I smell as you tarry beneath the magnolia tree. I hear the words. I taste the words. Doesn't everyone?
