FYI:I love the song N Y C – my daughter played Grace in a local production of Annie. It’s a wonderful song / memory….
That’s a piece of my NYC rendition

I visited NYC in 1997,
cars run very fast,
I rode the train from Princeton, NJ there,
thus riding on taxi made me feel scared…
love the statue of liberty,
fun place for music, arts, and literature…
beautiful micro fiction!

I like the song too. New York was the theme once for the Galveston Mardi Grai. Our crew, Houdah, did NY skits as we marched along and threw beads. Our group was in cadence with New York, New York.

What a wonderful tribute to the city! This was fabulous.

I took a train too from Ottawa to Hartford and on to New York City. Can barely remember the trip except for the heavenly cheesecake in Little Italy, the parade at St Liberty, the YMCA, the subway and Broadway…
All these MFMs bring it back so vividly…
Thank you Moondustwriter.
