The Dandelion
Deep in the city
A magical door awaits
Drawing you from
The crowded streets
Where the Dandelion waits
Conversations flow from
Room to room
As we sit
Snug in the corner
By the roaring fireplace
A glass of wine
A pint of beer
English offerings
Upon the plate
A fleeting moment
Of joy remembered
Sweet conversations
On a lazy afternoon
At the Dandelion
(Dandelion, Philadelphia, PA)

Chocolate
Down by Elfreth's Alley
Round the corner
Round the bend
The cobblestones
Worn beneath your feet
Ancient voices
Call from the rafters
Tales long and tall
Of days gone by
Trials won and lost
The children tug
Upon our sleeves
Who cares for history
When right there
Is Shane's
A little voice yells
Oh Franklin's too
Ice cream or
Chocolate
Whatever shall we choose?
(Elfreth's Alley, Shane's & Franklins, Philadelphia, PA)

These are a couple of my favorite places to go in Philadelphia. I hope that you enjoyed taking a trip down memory lane.
