New Orleans

Christina8

So happy, just so carefree

Cut loose from my anxiety

I thought my anxiety would be worse

But I was set free from my curse.

 

I'm claustrophobic, folks, there are so many

It's a Easter Sunday, so good to be me!

A Sunday where I don't belong to a church, but it's in my heart

Because God and I don't need an edifice to worship, for a start

 

But sweet jazz, great food and the love of my man

Make New Orleans my favorite city, the french quarter, my land

And I'll travel cross country again not just for the sights and sounds

But for the memories we made here away from my quaint town.

          We stayed just off Bourbon st too....boy is it hard to fall asleep with all the music. There are more positives about the city than there are negatives. Thanks for the kind review! C
