Melbourne Candid Series #1227 St Kilda Esplanade

 



By the beach, where the pale waves sigh,
morning drapes gold across the sky.
A café hums with gentle grace,
steam curls upward, soft as lace.

Patrons linger with toast and talk,
sunlight spilling where shadows walk.
Cups clink lightly, the baybird calls,
salt and coffee perfume the walls.

The breeze tastes sweet with sea and day,
the city still yawns a mile away.
Here, at the edge where the tides begin,
life feels slower — soft, within.

  3. Atre mucho la vista del mar. Estar sentado desayunando y poder ver el mar en frente es un placer, que a todos nos gusta disfrutar.
    Un abrazo.

  4. A fine day to be dining outside. This beach side place looks like it might have good food also.

  5. La casa de la luz parece que reza el anuncio. Y allí, en ese lugar, una reunión en la que todos parecen estar en compañía agradable.
    Abrazo
