Nighttime over the River Thames

The beautiful city lights sparkle like jewels in the night sky.

Chilly
The air is cold
A blanket of blackness covered the sky
Soft gray patterns embroidered the canvas
Looking down on the river Thames
A small cathedral stood on the left
The city of London on the right
Thames in the center
Boats floating on the surface
People taking a stroll in the chilly February evening
Lights decorated the scene
The area is quiet
So quiet
You can hear pebbles shuffling under your feet
As you walk on the cobbley pavement
The rich, cold air smells fresh
It wakens you up
Feels lively 
It’s nighttime
Can’t fall asleep
Wonder what the next weeks will bring
Hopefully adventure
My nose felt cold
The chilly, crisp air
Cigarette butts littered the pavement
Destroying the picturesque world sitting on 
Top of Richmond Hill
Trying to feel calm
Falling asleep
As the city lights twinkled
On the black canvas over the River Thames.

Hey There - you have painted a lovely picture here - I can almost feel the cold air, see the reflections in the river and can take in the usual sights. It is a soft walk in solitude and gives one time to think.

Nice work XX
