Melbourne Candid Series #1354 Elizabeth St

 


Sidewalk symposium at half past noon,
chips in a cup and a summer tune.
One girl debates with philosopher’s fire,
another just nods while guarding her fries entire.

The city streams past in monochrome grace,
heels clicking sermons all over the place.
Meanwhile the chairs lean back, unconcerned 
as if Melbourne itself has paused and adjourned.

    Més que les noies que estan assegudes, em crida l'atenció les dues noies que s'entrecreuen a la vorera.
    Salutacions.

    Una ciudad que vive el día a día y que mientras tanto se detiene alrededor de una mesa en una conversación animada.
    Abrazo

    How pleasant to be able to sit at a sidewalk cafe and watch the passing parade. Also it would be perfect for a street photographer.
