Reminiscing London

London after many decades
vibrant vigilant voracious
oh yes and with luck no rain

London showed so much
the daffodils in the parks
too early for a spring

Totally forgotten how captivating
beguiling  and just how fun
but only with touristy eyes

But to live in a dreary hood
would be sad and grim
the homeless didn't have big dogs

But the one thing that shocked
England has turned to plastic
The tea tasted Proustian 

London is it a she or a he
much for both and in vogue
just like she has always been

London is a grand ole lady
with her withered places and
a youthful dancing queen too
