Parklings

Creatures small and creatures tall Beings all, to grace the scene Greet me on my morning walk They serenade my stroll In the park there sings a lark Puppies bark on grasses green Squirrels with little fluffy tails Tease the morning sun By the lake for Heaven’s sake Ducklings make their way to preen Swans in regal stature rule And the world seems still If we all, we creatures tall Beings all, could just take note Parklings. could we rather be Sustained by nature’s love

"Parklings", how unique of a term, Mike. I enjoyed your poem and agreed with the wisdom within it. Life could be so simple if we would just come from a place of love instead of selfishness. A poet friend in Texas, Bill
