Love in Herald Square
They are plain as day
Hand in hand
Under the shadow of Greeley
In Herald Square
Arms locked
A white, winter flurry blowing
Red noses
Red pea coat
Red blush
Red passions
In Herald Square
Passing the window displays
Where
She eyes the gleaming stones
And dreams of her own
Which sits in his pocket
Hidden until evening
In Herald Square
A blur of warm yellow
Against a blank, swirling background
Lights twinkling for the holidays
In Herald Square
A dream
A reality
A promise
In Herald Square
Music drifts
Snow drifts
Eyes drift to one another
In Herald Square
Glove in glove
Along Broadway near sundown
The motley lines drawn out of the theatres
And into the icy streets
A man with a trumpet
A woman with a shopping bag
A child with a doll
And a boy and a girl in love
In Herald Square
