Our Park

A beautiful day and not a cloud in the sky

People greeting each other by simply saying hi

A walk around the park and a breathe of fresh air

Something we all need to cherish, we all need to care

A family sitting together reading a children’s book

Dad failing to light the BBQ trying to tell them he can cook

The dog running around trying to catch a thrown stick

Mum watching everything she never misses a trick

A courting couple lie together underneath a tree

Whispering sweet nothings and him touching her knee

Their lips touch, a gentle kiss and their fondness sealed

It won’t be long now until their love for each other is revealed

A single queue forming at the local ice cream parlour

Lots of options to choose from but you have a favourite flavour

One scoop or two is always a difficult decision to make

You eat the two scoops as you walk around the boating lake

People exercising alone while others workout together

The park brings everyone out in this glorious weather

So whether you are young, old or somewhere in between

Get out in the park; you’ll know why once you’ve been
