An Ode To A City
I am the city streets, paved not with gold but instead with the hopes and dreams of so many before you. I am the honking of horns that fills the night, and scattered conversations that lull you to sleep from fifteen stories below your window. I am the almost forgotten art posted on every street corner, the signs advertising "up and coming" molded to every brick and piece of stucco. I am the city lights, illuminating every corner and every apartment window long after you've gone to bed. I am the city, staying awake long after you've said your good-nights. I am the city, anonymous and always there, long after everyone else has gone.

Aww, I'm new to your blog so I can't compare the layout to the old one, but I do like this one.
ReplyDeleteAnd the poem and photograph were really lovely. The line about 'hopes and dreams' is especially meaningful.
Thanks :) I still think the writing is too short, but I can't seem to add anything to it at the moment without destroying what I have.
ReplyDeleteBut thank you for reading, and for commenting!
