Away in the park garden No pale flowers, only bright Where senses sharpen And worries feel light The birds sweetly sing In magnolia trees A chorus with wings Nature sounds appease Chipmunks all scatter Thieves of many seeds With playful fun chatter Now hiding in weeds Bees buzz all around Pollenating flowers Fragrant smells surround Grounds lush with showers

Oh Tania, you mesmerized me with your poem. Wish we had some rain here. But in Malta such is life. we grumble in winter and hate summer. Back to your poetry and may I congratulate you on the fine imagery. It is alluring. Hugs.

Parks provide a lovely place for people to gather and enjoy nature. A circus provides a service to make people happy. An asylum certainly provides a service! We wrote for the contest, and win or more than likely lose... we are supporting sponsors with every contest we enter. Poop on one who doesn't appreciate our efforts.

Yes, I read that too, I have edited my poem back to the original version. I am not going to change it for her contest. Jan, thank you, I am leaving my delightful poem for all to enjoy.

I've just read the Sponsor's blog and she mentions the park isn't retail or 'a service' shame as your poem is delightful.

Tania, Sounds like a fun trip to the park, watching the goings on of the critters. Wouldn’t even mind the shower since it’s been so hot here. Heat index of 113 yesterday.
