Poems
by Charles
Jobson

Thoughts from the street café
Bustling people, crowded streets,a world
of busyness,
excited
shoppers,
relentless
passers-by.
Yet
here I sit
pondering
over a steaming beverage,
oblivious
of time and pressure,
enjoying
the moment.
Inside
the neon lights,
waiters
rushing in and out,
incredible
variety of hot and cold drinks,
smart
and cheerful.
L’addition
s’il vous plait.
My drink
has come to an end
and
I must join the throng outside,
regretfully
returning to the real world.
