The darkness has come and is now going,
Those who have waited to share their magic are returning.
The streets are filled with the beautiful sound of guitars and flutes.
Alone stands the street performer.
Sitting in their own world putting others in a trance.
Alone stands the street performer.
Bringing magic to the world,
Music to life,
The words so beautiful,
Crowds stand around the street performer,
Listening to their magic.
The skies welcome the sounds.
The birds sit and make their own street performances.
No longer alone is the street performer.
People all around,
Listening to their beautiful sounds,
Joy and laughter fills the streets that were once filled with the sounds of rain.
The performer, still in their own worlds, concentrating on the music.
The notes are floating in the air.
Together we stand and listen.
To the street performer awaiting a new days dawn.

Judge:
‘An Evening in the Life of a Street Performer’. It’s absolutely perfect for my contest. Good luck.

A very nice write that explains the option you chose. (placing it in the author notes was required for the ease of others reading)
Lovely words that bring on the musician's mind.
Thank you for writing. Well done overall!
Welcome to the site. Should you have a question, please let one of us know.

I cannot figure out how to change the authors notes to option 1.

welcome to allpoetry
It does seem a bit obvious as to which option you were inspired by but you still need to let us know either option 1 or 2 as the rules state.
Your thoughts flow together very nicely. A write that fits the picture well.
Good luck to you in the contest.
