A smooth breeze brushes my face
And stiffens my hands.
Light burns the underside of bridges,
While a lost train cries out,
Screeching in lonely desperation.
Joggers grate a sandy sidewalk
And clouds wait low in the distance;
Their coral hues almost blending
with the thick horizon.
Planes crawl, carried in the glacier of the sky.
All frozen into the portrait of today.
