Parklife

Sitting on a bench

In the middle of the park

Watching the local wildlife

Running wild in the wind

There are many ducks

Swimming in the pool

You never know what else

Probably piddling in there too!

Watching squirrels is fun

Running up and down,

Different trees all the time

Adding spice to their life

Dogs running free

Sniffing everything in sight

One of them a wrecker

Knocking over the bins

It’s a pleasant day

Watching people walk by

Babies in the prams

Lovers hand in hand

It’s good to be free

To breathe in the air

Bask in the sunshine

Glad to be alive
