February in Sydney

In Sydney's heart, February unfurls,
A tapestry rich, in warmth it swirls.
The sun kisses the sea, a lover's gaze,
Summer's last breath, in its golden haze.

Leaves whisper not, but in breezes dance,
Shadows play in a fleeting, sunlit trance.
The harbor, a mirror to sky's endless blue,
Boats glide, painting ripples anew.

Night descends, a soft, starlit veil,
Laughter floats, in the warm, salty gale.
Festivals bloom under moon's soft glow,
In vibrant streets, where night winds blow.

Yet, a whisper of autumn, in the air does cling,
A subtle shift, a promise of what March will bring.
But for now, February reigns, serene,
In Sydney, where summer's beauty is seen.
A vibrant street festival in Sydney at night
A vibrant street festival in Sydney at night
