a lifetime burning

Mono Monday: People

"People in love do funny things
Walk under buses and burn their wings
People like us do nothing right
Talk to the ceiling into the night 

Look at the smile in her eyes
I knew I was right in my bones
I feel the turnin' of wheels as it grows
Look at my face in her eyes
Am I right, am I wrong
She's given me butterflies all along 

Oh sitting alone in the dark
Oh feeling you close to me
We're in a dream
But the hands on the clock seem to know
Tell me it's time to go 

People in love play silly games
Running in circles and everywhere
People like us can make believe
Love is forever and I'll never be 

Ooh sitting alone in the dark
Ooh feeling you close to me
We're in a dream
But the hands on the clock seem to know
Tell us it's time to go"

Once again, thank you to Skeena for hosting the MonoMonday challenge.

In the 20 minutes that it took me to walk back from my meeting to the office today, I desperately searched for a shot for today's Mono Monday challenge.  Fortunately I had the little (and nowadays much dropped*) Sony RX100 with me , which is a great camera for surreptitious street shots.  

I just happened across this couple engaged in a romantic moment as they listened to a busker playing some delightful music on his cello.  I knew the moment that I saw them that I had my blip.

*The Sony is a very robust little camera, which is just as well.  It has a metal case and has now fallen from hip height to the floor on 3 occasions,  and on each occasion to a hard surface.  As a result it has a minor dent or two and various scratches nowadays, but it still works perfectly.  It is a very impressive little thing.  If the software was a bit easier to use it would be even more impressive.
