New Orleans Showcase Of Old Dreams   Leave a comment

The Antique Showcase
In the Mode of Shel Silerstein

It’s not a door or window, no—
it doesn’t creak or swing or glow.

It’s just a box with glassy face,
that holds old dreams in one small place.

A trumpet, hat, a porcelain cat—
things that whisper, “Remember that?”

And though it stands so still, so sly—
I swear those antiques wink as you walk by.
