Sun drifts mournfully through the mist.
Dew clings to ferns,
Longing to last for another fleeting moment.
Silence is broken repeatedly
by the welcome of a brook.
The wind stirs, singing with the water.
Flames dance within the earthen embrace.
Hissing, popping, joining the choir.
In the distance a loon calls,
A cardinal completes the duet.
Even when darkness falls
The band continues on.
Snow covered steps leading down.
The roar of cars on rails screech and whine.
The ever moving crowd sways.
Shuffled from home to business.
Some sit, collecting the coins of few.
Arrival at your destination marked with the chill of wind.
Steam swirls with every every exhale.
Breathe in the scent of mixing cultures.
Chestnuts, sausages and other street fare.
The market glows
People shopping or eating.
Enjoying everything Faneuil Hall has to offer.
