London blocks the view with buildings
Look up! cranes constructing more and higher still
Look out! pedestrians like bumper cars
the ambulant mobile-mesmerised
Observe the signs of instruction
cluttering streets, zombies
guided here to there with directions
Watch the rushing feet, weaving a fast lane
through the muddled mass of Londoners
Look down and see the pavements open up
mirror art picturing the world around
– puddles are our horizon

Postscript: Leaving London for a few days in search of another city!

step into an other world
perfectly put Diana
Your words and Diana’s say it all. You are so creative and observant, Laura.
thank you Beth – am a puddleophile!
Love it Laura, thanks for joining in. Mostly we seem to only look straight ahead and never get the full view of life.
I like the idea of your meme Claudette and this emotograph spoke volumes to me!
Glad that it reached you all the way over there 🙂
Love how these words move us through London….and what a perfect image!
thank you Donna – these impressionistic words just flowed to the image of a London puddle!
For the same reason as already stated, it looks like a portal leading to another world.. great catch !
