Walking San Miguel

It's a meditation
Pay attention

No straight streets
No right angles
No flat pavement
Hardly any side walks
Often no street signs
And don't count on
sequential house numbers

Lesson one
Shoes
Gripping soles
Solid support
Tight strap
Snug fit

Lesson two
How slow can I go
Watch your step
Every single one
Place the right foot down

Lesson three
Keep your eyes peeled on the ground
Be sure your left foot doesn't slip
Does the cobble stone tilt
Or is there a ditch

Lesson Four
Stop to look around
Be sure to watch out for poles that block the way
and wires that cut diagonally through
some -not even wide enough for one person-streets to walk on

Lesson Five
Keep your head covered
To protect it from the hot sun and
a shampoo from a garden hose
dousing the roof top garden bouganvillas

Lesson Six
Be sure to smile at every passing face
Hola buenos dias
You never know who you will meet
As you zig zag through the streets,

Zig to the shady side
Zag to the flat side
Zig through the Jardin
Zag to the market

Don't fall
