Today

Walking the streets of San Francisco today
Was fun once again, smells and lively sound,
All around reflections, city by the bay.

On wire fence, bok choy draped on display,
Drying in thin sun nearly to the ground.
Walking the streets of San Francisco today.

North Beach garlic, spaghetti, chardonnay,
Sidewalk tables full, no seats to be found.
All around reflections, city by the bay.

Down along the Wharf, visitors look, and play
Tourist in shorts, tanktops, flip-flops, fog bound.
Walking the streets of San Francisco today.

Five hundred steps to Coit Tower, a long way
To climb for fabulous views all around.
All around reflections, city by the bay.

Walking down to Chinatown without delay,
To savor flavor of food world renowned.
Walking the streets of San Francisco today,
All around reflections, city by the bay.
