The Park
It's here. The busy, hot, protection
The Park. A worthwhile and wonderful place
This haven of wildlife is pleasing to me
An intriguing reminder of friendly years
It's here. The exciting, entertaining comfort
The Park. An informative and noisy place
A story unfolds of nostalgic affection
Evocative of times both happy and sad
I'm grateful it's still here. Good.
