the Royal Hudson TRAIN.
Guess some say, “That’s all she WROTE.”
Yet some of us still dream those Vancouver days will come back AGAIN.
The Totem THEATRE,
before the Q.E.,
an ice cream called PETERS,
and the days of BENNETT’S NAVY
(And Seniors –on weekdays- could go FREE).
A restaurant called SCOTTS,
the Grosvenor Hotel TOO.
Memories? Oh yeah, plenty, a warmth RENEWED.
Dunne and Rundle, that photography store with CLASS.
Some of us were also well developed and clearly photographically fixed-at Photolec, close to the main library on BURRARD.
The neon lights on theatre row, such ‘pezzaz’. Dollar 49 Day at Woodwards, today, it might be kind a HARD.
Good old Vancouver, before all that glass and concrete AROSE.
Construction with corporate ZING.
Perhaps. Who KNOWS,
the old days and songs, many a smile and warm recollection will bring.
