Walk With Nature - Places Contest

Walk with me along a dusty path, Through a curtain of weeping willows, Where water laps against the bank, Forget –me-not’s in the grass, like pillows. Duckling snuggle amongst these flowers Gently pecking at the leafy mould. Swans walk serenely with crossed toes Head arched in a majestic pose. Come sit with me and enjoy the view The lake glistens in a sunny haze The coot dodges in and through the willow as we gaze The greedy seagulls snatch the food That children throw with much glee. Canadian geese fly in and intrude On the ducks and swans as they eat tea. It’s a mile long, this walk we take Passing a memorial lighthouse to Capt Scott The place I take you is Roath Park Lake* Come add some memories, forget it not. • http://cardifflocalguide.co.uk/local-guide-to-roath-park-lake.
