Park and Hide


Again drawn to the green
I smell the rain of yesterday,
the brook flows swiftly
thoughts feel tidal
furious and fast,
playing imaginary poo sticks
with a thought I need to think,
approaching the bridge,
I don't go to the other side,
a bird peeps loudly, regularly,
I take it as a warning,
my thoughts collide as it stops.

Nice title, shells, and pleasant intrigue throughout this piece. I like the observation of your thoughts and how they blend with the park setting. And the peeping bird is particularly appreciated, of course. Applause!

Your imagery is brilliant, exciting my senses.
I must find out what a poo stick is. 🙃
