and look to the sky,
watch the pillowy clouds
as they pass on by.
The birds, they float
on without care.
Feel your breath escape,
and bring in fresh air.
The sun is shining
while children play.
With arms outstretched,
you decide to stay.
Roll onto your stomach,
remind of the fact,
the park is much better,
“I don’t want to go back.”
When hard at work,
it’s safe to say,
you’re not allowed
to lay and play.
But when in the park
on your break, your lunch,
you’re like a child:
you “like it a bunch.”
“Oh, what can I do?”
you hear yourself say.
“Call in to work?”
“I won’t be back today?”
Now for the moral
of this little poem:
spend time in the park,
you’ll feel at home!

ReplyDeleteYou paint a grand picture
ReplyDeleteof this park which you play
Our parks they put them
in the bad part of town
right in the middle where
they burnt the projects down
But it is okay we all understand
they need a place to sell out of
and hide from the man
"Feel your breath escape, and bring in fresh air." Great line, Really wanted to be reading this in the park as I finished! Well done!
ReplyDeleteI love a good poem. And a good park. You combined both so nicely.
ReplyDeleteThe park is a very serene place to be! I'd go more often if it wasn't really hot during the day, :-).
