Missed Connections in Manhattan
Winter Light NYC
quiet streets
walking my dog
neighbors nodding “good morning”
newspapers on the stoop
xmas trees on the curb
coffee brewing
sun breaking through
cascading between buildings
perfect winter air
crisp and inviting
the day awaits you
all the promise
make it happen
Her Two Cents
While New York City is a place of vibrant colors, lights, and never-ending brightness (a trip to Times Square illustrates this perfectly in surreal brilliance) it’s also a city with a beautiful black and white quality. Early morning winter streets are rich with shades of gray and for a brief moment, a city and its people slow its frenzied pace and take a breath in preparation for the long run ahead.
