The Steel Bridge in Portland, Oregon. USA
by Strawberryindigo.
◊
An urban oasis of beautiful flowers
Amid the hustle and bustle of the city
Brilliant swaths of vibrant color
Demanding a second glance
Standing in sharp contrast
With a bridge of steel
And a summer’s end sky
An oasis among steel and glass
Water and stone
Buzzing with life
Appreciated by bees and humans alike.

Hi Gunta: Thanks. I normally don’t go downtown much but I should more. There is a lot of energy down there. 🙂
Lovely photos! What a great contrast. And I can hear those bees buzzing! 😉
Hi Cathy: Leave it to me to find some flowers among all those tall buildings. I guess I’m a bit like those bees too. 🙂
