Melbourne Candid Series #1269 Swanston St

 


Swanston Street strides in monochrome beat,
heels and sneakers tapping shared concrete.
One checks time, one scans the sky,
one walks past with a practised sigh.

Shopfront clocks promise “you’re alive,”
traffic hums its daily drive.
Everyone starring, no script, no stage
just Melbourne turning another page.

  1. M'agrada molt aquest rellotge, la vida continua sense que, aparentment, se n'adoni ningú.
    Salutacions!

  2. This could be a Mom and her two children out for a shopping trip. She is in charge. Someone seems to be carrying a balloon just for fun.

  5. The city is a grand stage where people constantly move about. Some come, others go ...
