Skyscraper pierced a sapphire noon
Streets beat quick like urgent tune
Wooden bench beneath its pride
Held a hush no rush could hide
Briefcase paused beside the shoe
Phone fell quiet world felt new
Breath returned through open chest
Steel above felt less a test
Bird perched bold on iron rail
Life survived the concrete gale
Peace arrived in humble frame
Rest reclaimed its rightful claim
Power shines in lofted height
Balance lives in grounded sight
Sit where cities learn to breathe—
Benches teach what heights can’t weave
