Their corner of the neighborhood had a palpable pulse and seemed to breathe life into the early morning, even before lines formed to join the bulging sea of bakery chatter, endless cups of fresh coffee and delicious warm pastry.
The simple charms of community, once on daily display, had given way to fingerprints and faceless face smudges, nothing more than glass tombstones in an unforgiving domain gravid with interloping greed.

You’re very welcome and i appreciate how you used to be able to capture the essence of a story in such a short amount of words! Amazing!
Now, your expanded stories are hard for me to visit often. I worked in the past two weeks 104 hours. I love blogging but am rather inconsistent in my readings. Smiles, Robin
