Gathered beneath
a tick-tock sky
Strangers by name,
friends on the street
Blue in the face,
stiff upper lip
Cobblestone seats,
warm with the sun
Evening show
takes center stage
The players speak
unwritten lines

Photo: Covent Garden, London, c.b.w. 2005
Words: c.b.w. 2014
Inspiration: Covent Garden is often the stage for street performers and is always full of people. Between performances and people watching, there’s never a dull moment.

A picture evokes a place and, stirs within us, memories of spent moments!

In that very space I watched a magic and acrobat show the last time I was in London. It was amazing! 🙂
