Park Bench

Park Bench

By Muse Gong

 

Taking a walk outside the backyard fence,

there is a park bench under the sunlight on the roadside,

the bench is so tempting that you can sit down and enjoy the warmth and care of the sun.

 

Bees hum, flowers sway, birds chirp in the distance, the sky is high and the clouds are clear.

Ah, the noon sun, please sit on the bench and breathe with nature to share your destiny.

This is the nearest bench to home.

 

Sitting on it, I opened a book,

surrounded by colorful and nameless grass,

the young and delicate bud are colorful,

with purple and white accents intertwined with reeds under the green background.

There are also standing white chives and shrubs that extend slowly to the distant hillside.

 

The college entrance examination students sitting on the bench after school,

tired office workers stopping on their way home,

the bench - the roadside of the park - silently waiting for passersby to patronize.

 

I am facing the natural ecological vegetation and landforms that have been preserved through the unremitting efforts of environmentalists. Sitting quietly on a bench under towering pines and cypresses,

I daydream and write poetry.

As the saying goes, a simple life is a noble soul.
