The sandbox is filled With toddlers just starting to yap. They play, they eat, they cry Then it’s time to take a nap… The monkeybars are seen With older children showing off. They swing, they drop, they rise They continue with their stuff. The slide is now in focus With pre-teen children climbing up. They run, they jump, they laugh They begin to develop. The swing can now be seen With adolescents hanging out. They fly, they fall, they try. They learn what love is about. The grass is freshly cut With young adults reading for class. They see, they dream, they do The hours quickly pass. The path is occupied With adults out for a jog. They sweat, they win, they lose The years become a fog. The bench is where it ends With an old woman in a wrap. She knows, she speaks, she smiles Then it’s time to take a nap…

The Park
The sandbox is filled With toddlers just starting to yap. They play, they eat, they cry Then it’s time to take a nap… The monkeybars are seen With older children showing off. They swing, they drop, they rise They continue with their stuff. The slide is now in focus With pre-teen children climbing up. They run, they jump, they laugh They begin to develop. The swing can now be seen With adolescents hanging out. They fly, they fall, they try. They learn what love is about. The grass is freshly cut With young adults reading for class. They see, they dream, they do The hours quickly pass. The path is occupied With adults out for a jog. They sweat, they win, they lose The years become a fog. The bench is where it ends With an old woman in a wrap. She knows, she speaks, she smiles Then it’s time to take a nap…
