Saturday Night

The city sighs, a slow exhale,

As Friday's frenzy starts to wane.

The sun dips low, a fiery trail,

Leaving shadows in its wake.

Saturday night, a canvas bare,

Awaiting strokes of joy and dare.

Couples stroll, hand clasped in hand,

Whispers shared, dreams understand.

Music spills from open doors,

A symphony for dancing floors.

Laughter rings, a joyful sound,

As friends in revelry abound.

Streetlamps cast a golden hue,

On bustling streets, a vibrant crew.

Youngsters zoom on skateboards bright,

Chasing freedom in the night.

Window displays, a dazzling show,

Beckon shoppers, row by row.

Treasures hidden, just in sight,

Temptations dance in flickering light.

A lone saxophonist, heart laid bare,

Pours soul into the evening air.

Melancholy mingles with delight,

A bittersweet symphony of night.

On rooftops, starlit stories gleam,

A silent witness to the scene.

A shooting star, a fleeting wish,

Whispered hopes in a lover's kiss.

Neon signs hum a vibrant song,

Guiding souls where they belong.

A dive bar's warmth, a smoky haze,

Where laughter mingles in a daze.

In quiet corners, books are read,

Escape found within the lines instead.

A cup of tea, a gentle friend,

A haven where the world can mend.

Homeward bound, with weary feet,

Memories bloom, bittersweet.

The city sleeps, a peaceful hum,

Saturday's echo, overcome.

But in the hush, a promise lies,

Of dreams to chase, beneath clear skies.

For Sunday dawns, a brand new start,

A chance to paint a work of art,

On life's wide canvas, ever bright,

With colors borrowed from the night.

Saturday's whispers, soft and low,

A prelude to the seeds we sow.
