Melbourne Candid Series #1299 Swanston St

 

Beneath the sign of Tropicana’s glow,
where pyramids of oranges patiently grow,
a traveller leans in, bag swinging low
perhaps for a juice, perhaps just to know.

The street hums softly in monochrome light,
heels on the pavement, a city at night.
A woman checks her phone, half-lost in a text,
while citrus and neon debate what comes next.

“Fresh juice!” declares the fruit in a heap,
“Wake up the tired! Revive the half-asleep!”
And somewhere between the window and street,
two strangers pause
for vitamin C and a moment to meet.
