Only Black and White
Kempt kiosks beckon with light as commerce continues (left and right) with silhouetted shoppers sans crowds to fight below undulating arches (magnificent and bright)
Walls abound around the town in a concentration that’s quite renowned and marked by a variety made profound when enhanced in a city serenely snowbound
Perpendicular planes and ninety degrees form geometric shapes that subtly please
Cropped lines run infinitely out of sight while vertical faces bounce a majority of the light
With accentuated shading and contrast controlled, an abstraction is created to ponder or behold
As the calendar closes in on the grand finale of its run, of what will the memories of its captured occurrences become ?
With steely skies one might surmise the storm is stuck in a murky guise - unrelenting as it makes midday appear as dawn in a warping way
With the sun having set and the day long done, the ceremony concluded and the reception’s course run, many a bus is boarded for a talkative trip back to town, leaving the vintage and the vineyard for sweet slumber without sound.
Pillars present as guardians to a hall which beckons through glass as an illuminated call
Bricks perceived in an interlocking weave, yet asymmetrically undulating between frequent frost heaves
Passengers perambulate in their comings and goings each day as they collectively propel upon public walkways
Sun slashing across grid-like gates, destroying darkness as it angularly ablates
Upon a porch and well past noon, light ripples in a silky swoon
Hunger and boredom can be readily quenched when waiting upon a station house bench
A reflecting pond positioned in a park lends a view of man’s dalliance with nature in an undying urban stew
Beasts of burden, bearing their mix, queue ponderously together while congealing their fix
Tree lights beam as galaxies bright when morning drizzle shifts day towards night
Striving to articulate a view with some skew, this time it's about toes, freed from their shoe.
Spread so slightly as if trying to take flight from bearing the burden of the bulk of one's might.
Under appreciated and periodically abused; yet ever so faithful and even able to amuse.
Digitally anchoring each step with grace, they punctuate propulsion in the great human race.
Mortar gray sets a stony sky - the surmounting of which we must strive to try
As gravity sustains many ways long old - spires call for actions bold
Reach down deep and reassess - for reflection emboldens a reach for the best
An inverted view may pave the way - to view the world in a different way
Brazenly branded on their cellulose skins, tatted trees broadcast many amorous sins - such as AJ loves Lucy, or maybe MJ loves Jim - liaisons announced back when she was wanting of him
And what of each climber and his feelings today? Sans a sharp edge does he have much to say?
