Were You In New Orleans Yesterday?

Where were you yesterday? I looked and I looked and I could not find you. I looked and I looked and I looked. I got tired of looking but I could not forget why I was looking. I was looking for you. I missed you. Where were you?

I was in New Orleans. I was in Mid-City, the Heart of New Orleans, as people who love Mid-City like to say. Where were you? My Vespa seats two. Mrs. King and I took it to lunch.

Today, I ran into people I know. This happened all day long. It usually does. People I met only four days ago, I rubbed elbows with them again today in the most improbable places five times. I was looking for you but I could not find you. My eyes were open. I did not find you. Where were you?

I hope you are still alive. Happiness loves company.

New Orleans is a real city but it is also a giant town. New Orleanians run into people we know all the time. Where were you?
