Clatter fills the air, plates collide and voices rise— The deli hums life.
Pickles sharp and crisp, mustard bites with zesty heat— A feast for the nose.
Griddle sings its tune, bacon pops, its smoky scent dances on the breeze.
Knives tap steady beats, bagels sliced, their warmth escapes— Toasted clouds linger.
Salted lox unfolds, cream cheese spreads its mellow calm-- Savory whispers.
Pastries glisten bright, powdered sugar dusts the air— Sweetness paints the room.
Laughter ricochets, accents weave through each exchange— The deli breathes soul.
In this crowded nook, New York lives in scent and sound— A city alive.
