No. 11

The squeak of a wheelchair. The traffic clattering over a speed-bump. You couldn't miss him. A sign in childish hand about Asia's monkeys and a mechanical one banging tin cymbals as old man wheezes into a harmonica. No tune. No rhyme or reason. The rattle of spare change into a metal cup. Music to his ears.

Not many words here, but the ones you have are very very well chosen. It almost feels more like a poem.
