New Orleans Street Band (December 29, 1999) — Images by kenne
Shading dark eyes, grinds out the melody,
Pulverized music! — In his garb and air
I read of sunnier lands beyond the sea,
And, dreaming, wander to a fairer clime,
Recalled, too suddenly, by — ‘If you please, a dime!’
— from Street Music by Elizabeth Akers Allen
