Image result for old benches in the park

Benches nestling the arms of youngsters and old men , where leaves change across four seasons. How treasured moments or goodbyes are etched upon wooden boards keeping tales -- fragile as park’s secrets to rest on aged Benches SEPTEMBER 2018 STANDARD Contest of Brian Strand
