The Park
‘When will I be free from this stuff
To kiss your suave skin
And to feel the high winds pretty rough
From a gale from your deep green?’
It is the park beside the hospital
Bill is speaking to
Has undergone a surgery cervical
From his bed the green square is a marvelous view
A big marigold hugs a voluptuous Zenia bunch
Under the blue light and in green breeze
A rare orgasmic avalanche
And the Beech and Larch engaged in a squeeze
‘I wish I could be with you
O my happy children there’
The moment a whistle loudly blew
Bill almost jumped in the air
The cute nurse smiled a little
And said: It’s a good balm sir
For the aching souls in riddle
Look at the lavenders calling there
Ah, how in my youthful days I
Would visit daily the neighborhood park
Upon the green ground we would lie
And wait for the bushes in dewy dark
Bill’s eyes met the tinted fountain
There at the distant center
After sundown it’s a night queen
Beside it a small mountain
The soaring green spirits of trees
The music of the whistling birds
The clouds above in shaping spree
Just speechless leaves it all of us
Parks are our wonderful friends
The poetry of park never ends
