A Walk In the Park
I smell the freshness in the airy
As we walk in the afternoon light
The sun in its full glare
Reveals pretty birds in full flight
Flowers brighten up the day
Squirrels dart across our path
Streams sing sweet songs and sway
Gently guided by the wind’s wrath
Wishing to the heavens for
The day never to come to an end
Mother Nature’s only flaw –
Father Time – causes our desire to bend
Homewards we went without will
Hating to leave Heaven on Earth
For the harsh realities of steel
A house with no fire in its hearth
