A child in the park is a happy child for sure. I have always enjoyed playing in the neighborhood parks as I was going through my childhood years. I still enjoy it...just wish I can do what I've done many moons ago....Thanks for reading !

Swing set riders And sliding board sliders And players On the Merry-Go-Round Getting scratched up knees From climbing up trees Dirty sneakers From the mud on the ground Paying push-cart prices For their cool Italian ices And their lips Turned cherry and blue And they ride their bikes As they go on hikes Swatting nets As the butterflies flew They make Choo-Choo trains And have green grass stains And go fishing In the pond in the park They have fun in the sun While they play and they run Having fun Until the days are getting dark
