Melbourne Candid Series #1017 Collins St

 


Through streets of gold where merchants call,
She wandered light ‘neath evening’s thrall.
With weary gaze and laden hands,
She left behind the bustling stands.

And as my shutter caught the scene,
Her eyes shut soft, lost in between.
Through heavy glasses, she turned away,
A fleeting ghost of spent-out day.

  5. Se la ve como cansada. Y las mujeres cuando van de compras no suelen poner esas caras.

  11. Lovely poem. THe B&W makes it look like it was taken decades ago...but I guess fashion comes around more often than we think...
