People come and go

Hear the noise

See the poise

of vendors

of customers

of tourists on vacation,

trying to bargain

and relying on quality products

See the colors of gold and green

of things seemingly clean

and comfort in

comfort food being sold

Bargain prices

but never enough


Appreciation of artistry or craftsmanship,

whenever one finds a unique item

to take back home

and show to all

a piece of Nawlins


Though material things cannot compare

to the experience had

where people come and go

and hear the noises

of footsteps, music, greetings,

and bargaining prices-

purchasing a memento

to take back home

and decorate walls

with a piece of Nawlins
