I was driving home to Phoenix
One glowing N.M. dawn
My tummy growled I looked on Yelp*
Gabby's jumped to screen.
Tucked away near downtown Grants
Former Tiendita front I saw that it's now Gabby's Caf
Breakfast was my want.
River Park across the street early in the day had geese and ducks and walking dogs they wanted me to stay.
Gabby's called I could not wait and so I walked away.
"Your early sir." said smiling Tam, "The cook is on his way."
"Restroom please."
"It's down the hall and to the left. waiting for your stay."
Music Country, art the same - it's rural N.M. here my friend, horses, cows and lambs.
Star of The West brought the list. She shined her light, she spoke her words she made my morning bright.
What rhymes with Huevos Rancheros? Farmer Brothers coffee and a tall cold glass of H2O.
The beans were swell, the eggs were fine, green chile sauce was gentle on my mind.
And into prose I wind.
