As I approached the city at dawn ~ it had
A strange ethereal orange glow
The only lighting was vegetable oil lamps
And BEESWAX Candles ~ This gave the
Houses a sexy honey scent ~ Like a
Ladies boudoir as I remember !
Only the lower part of the city
Was occupied and I saw scrawny dogs ~cats ~ rats
And I glimpsed a skeletal human form
Furtive in the gloom of a window.
No laughter ~ no chidren ~ an air fo gloom and doom
I regretted returning ~ but was very intrigued
I pushed open a door of a derilect house
But reeled in horror at what met my eyes ................... !
Thanks for visiting ~ Comments please ~ Part THREE tomorrow ~ BRIAN
