The Sidewalks Of New York — Part 3

Positively Going Forth On Streets

I calculate that I have walked approximately 36,500 steps in New York City.

That’s one and a half times around the planet!

I look up.

I look ahead.

I’m an artist—I don’t look back.

I look down.

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one? — Bob Dylan

I saw a lavender glove—left behind by a princess.

I saw a bird singing—and flowers blooming on concrete.

I saw a trail left by—a fast-running card dealer.
