In the
Hamburg
Blue-Skyed Morning
Sleepy wind swept streets
Layered by autumnal colours
Yellow, orange, gold and concrete too
Red hued bricks of towers and apartments
The highest-earning mercantile region of Germany.
My heart beats 93, unsure if it’s the city walk or anxiety
While I hop across cafes with wifi, power and activity
Nourished by good coffee and ingredient quality
Gazing inside-out at the shimmering waterfront
Keeping apace on autumnal leaves
Before the dreary gray descends
Gray clouded evening
Before tomorrow’s
Storm.
Business trip to Hamburg, Oct ‘25. The feeling on Monday before an intense week startss. Mostly written in Mayfair Cafe
