A Song Bird in the Park

there she was, playing her guitar and singing, she was like a nightingale, alone, we made eye contact and i winked and she smiled. she was a vision of the 60's, a wanderer, a street minstrel, a time, long ago, when my friend tommy and i walked the streets of the village, i almost saw my friend there for a second but my daughters baby brought me back to reality, to the reality that my friend was dead and i was a grandpa and as i gazed into my little ones eyes i forgot about my youth and i concentrated on her beauty and we walked away and i forgot to give her some money. i forgot to give the song bird in the park a couple of dollars for her singing, sorry for her and shame on me for dreaming.

She's playing for all the lost Tommys and the future baby girls and boys. Stopping to give her $$$ would have burst that time bubble. She knew that the minute you made eye contact.
