Walk In the Park On a Spring Day

Took a walk over to the small park Near my home Sparrows hopping on the ground and squirrels running by Brought some books along with me intending to relax but nature drew me and I watched the sparrow and the squirrel They are alive! I am alive ! A spring day on New York's Lower East Side later on - A Memorial Day banquet Looking forward.....

A beautiful relaxing scene you have penned. That little park sounds like a jewel set amidst the concrete.

The last line is the most expressive for me in this rich slice, from your time in the park as you tell of it Matthew, good indeed..!

Sounds like a wonderful place to be, Matthew. I'm glad that you have a park nearby, where you can relax and get away from the busy city.... I really enjoyed reading your poem this afternoon. A very nice write, Matthew!

I love squirrels though I never see one for real. This is light and breezy. I love it.
