There is a 🌹 in #SpanishHarlem
It is a special one
It's never seen the 🌞
It only comes out
when the 🌛 is on the 🏃🏽♀️
And all the 💫 are gleaming
It's growing in the street
right up through the concrete
But soft & sweet & dreamin'
Jerry Leiber
Phil Spector

Before the #orangeman was elected in the States, I used to visit #nyc every two years in the summer, and spend a week blitzing on Broadway and just exploring the city. A few times I brought someone along but mostly, it was a time to enjoy my own company without having to cater to anyone else's preferences. Just when the #orangeman was ousted, the pandemic hit, and so it's been far too long since I've been back. I miss my little rental apartment in #spanishharlem & the city itself so much.
