“Town Square”
Shopping hub, bustling people about,
Money shifting hands and talking heard round,
Shifting, scanning eyes do travel to scout
To see where their service is safe and sound.
All the talking cause voices to be drowned.
The town square is so filled with life today.
All the moving feet do loudly pound
To hush even loudest child’s dismay.
And so the people do dance on the ground
Till day be done and lonely night is crowned.
