Pouring Tea in Alexandria

by Alexander Marshall

The deep indigo of Alexandria’s blue hour settles over a narrow alley in the Montaza district, where the warm, saturated glow of a street-side kiosk spills onto the damp pavement. A vendor, hands busy with the rhythmic motion of pouring tea, balances a stack of small, colorful glass tea tins against a backdrop of hanging dried hibiscus and mint. Nearby, a cluster of potted geraniums in chipped terracotta pots lines the low stone wall, their red petals vivid against the cooling twilight. The rough texture of lime-washed plaster and the geometric shadows of a wrought-iron gate, capturing a fleeting moment of daily life where the vibrant local colors contrast sharply with the encroaching night.
