Sydney Candid Series #1470 Sydney CBD

 

Upon the stone where hurried shadows pass,
And twilight weaves its cold, autumnal 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.

Sydney Candid Series #1469 Sydney CBD

 

Behind the counter’s stainless sheen,
The busy hands move sharp and clean.
The steam ascends in silver lines,
Where hurried preparation twines.

The patrons gather, wait, and look,
To catch a glance of what they cook.
A quiet rush, a steady stride,
Of life that stirs and flows inside.

Across the pass, the dishes gleam,
Like modern clockwork in a dream.
While out beyond the kitchen wall,
The shadows shift and softly fall.
