A graciosidade efémera nas nossas cidades

Grace amidst the grind

"One gaze follows the path ahead,
Tracing the lines where the sunlight is shed.
The other lingers, a quiet surprise,
With the world’s hidden mischief caught in her eyes.

Between the stone walls and the crowd's muffled roar,
Is a secret shared, then a moment more.
Amidst the grind, two women remain in a soft, steady light
The heart of the city, looking back at you. "
