Sydney Candid Series #1470 Sydney CBD

 


Upon the stone where hurried shadows pass,
And twilight weaves its cold, Spring shroud,
The music rises clear above the mass
Of shifting shapes that form the restless crowd.
With practiced grace he strikes the silver wire,
Beneath the brim that shields his thoughtful gaze;
His lonely art ignites a transient fire
Amidst the gloom of city-wearied days.
The world rolls by on tracks of iron stride,
Unheeding of the beauty born and spent,
Yet truth and song in harmony abide,
To crown the night with quiet, calm content.

  4. La musica en la calle para hacer más soportable el frio y más ameno el paseo.

  5. Only a few people are paying attention to this street musician's music. Most people are hurrying to get somewhere, and perhaps hoping to catch a streetcar running on those tracks.

  7. I hope that he earned some money...being a street musician is a tough job.
