On Sunday
I observed the lawn bowling

An interesting game
The ball breaks just like a golf ball
It looked quite difficult

And these older women
Appeared to be quite skilled

One showed a beautiful smile
As she walked

I sat and observed the people relaxing
In the park
On a Sunday in June

Quite Idyllic

And as I approached the putting green
Located not far from the lawn bowling
An old man helped
An even older man into his car

The older of them may have been
In his early nineties
He had a beautiful smile

I practiced putting for a while
And in the far distance

A familiar sight
A twosome pushing pull carts

With sun umbrellas in their hand

The American flag flowing in the breeze
America, America

This used to be a better nation
Although never perfect

Involved in too many foreign wars
A nation in debt
Corrupt banksters and politicians
There is no future in this land

Maybe this classic American Sunday
Will be a thing of the past soon
