The Park

By the sun-boiled creek

The geese walk in a line.

The flower garden's full

Of wispy butterflies.


There's a train on the track;

Leave no one behind—

Or else how will they see

And love

The park in summertime?


We can hide in the shade

Or get sunburnt in the field—

Admire ornate sculptures

While we eat a picnic meal.


And when winter sets in

This place will go to sleep.

The park in summertime

Will feel like an antique.
