Golden October Evening
Autumn in Vienna


October Evening
Gusshausstrasse
4th District


The clouds of dark grey fog
rising from the Danube
had settled over the city
in the morning and then sat there all day,
obscuring what otherwise would have been
a sunny autumn day, with clear blue skies


I was taking a walk around Schwarzenbergplatz,
before heading home, when I noticed the sun had managed
to break through the fog cover in a few places,
leaving tiny bits of blue sky exposed and letting
some rays of sunshine light up the light-starved city
