Tarrytown Rhythm

Window shop display on West Main Street in Tarrytown

The life of a writer – a perpetual state of artistic hunger, is where every quiet room whisper tales of inspiration and every raindrop tells a story. It's a life where lamp light is a beacon for musings, and melancholy is as much a muse as joy.

Just south of Peekskill is Tarrytown, with its quaint charm and the Music Hall that stands as a testament to the town's rhythm like a forgotten melody that once rediscovered, plays on loop in the mind's jukebox.  And that quote, oh that quote I inspected in a window shop typed on a vintage Royal typewriter was like finding an Easter egg in a video game, a hidden gem that brought a smirk to my face, because it was not just a line of poetry, it's a secret handshake between kindred spirits – the writer and the self.

So, here's to the writers, the dreamers, the seekers of the inexplicable – may your typewriters or laptops never jam and your ideas flow as endlessly as the sound from the flowers.

but the sound keeps coming
out of the flowers”
- Matsuo Basho
