Let's Go For A Walk

Let's go for a walk, shall we?

Let's go down the stairs and go out the door of the Studs Terkel suite out into the garden with flowers all around and the smell of petunias fresh in the air.

Let's go thru the gate at the front of the house out onto the shady, tree-lined streets.

Let's go for a walk down those street past Clark and down the hill and under the bridge and into the park and around the pond.

Let's go for a walk to the Lily Pad garden and sit in the shade by the water there.

Let's go under Lakeshore Boulevard and out by the lake and down to the beach with the Windy City looming up in the south.

Let's walk down the Gold Coast and the Magnificent Mile.

Let's walk over the Michigan Avenue bridge and have deep dish pizza in Prudential Plaza and buy honey and raspberries at the farmers' market there.

Let's take a boat cruise and see the buildings that are there to see.

Let's go to the Art Institute and see the snippets of Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright hanging on the marble walls.

Let's go to the old public library and look at the colored lights at the top of the wide stairway.

Let's go for a walk until we get tired and take the bus back and take a shower to clean off the grime.

Let's go for a walk, shall we?
