Wine; in Park

AuburnScribbler

Sometimes; there’s no finer thing

being amongst the maize,

a place; that is cared for,

nature’s loving ways,

 

the ivy’s cut; thus; trees can grow,

to be so very strong,

their silent bloom; a laugh at us

when we act so wrong,

 

hence; I like to sit; and gaze; to

them; the old green masters,

toasting, with some fruit of theirs,

away from business blasters,

 

for the wine; has come from them,

I sip, with heartfelt thanks,

with their roots; caressing bumps,

some seats; by river banks,

 

modern era’s garish,

makes this; a healing gift,

a fellow man; could let me down

so; open field’s; a lift,

 

therefore; in conclusion, to

escape such foolish bark, I

step in tow; with bottle bag; and

drink; some wine; in park.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Here's another "mellow" one, thus, another break from my "oblique observations" and "rancid report cards" on our species. To escape the hustle and bustle of humanity, there's nothing more, I like to do, than to take a bottle of wine to a nearby public park, find a quiet corner, and just sit and be, and be at one, and in awe, of nature. In Newark, Nottinghamshire, where I live, I am lucky to have a fair few public parks to choose from, my two favourites are: the Queen's Sconce, an old site where the English Civil War was fought, and the Riverside Park, opposite the castle, the river Trent, and where King John died. It is a much needed spiritual boost for me, in a modern era, that is anything but spiritual! I hope that you enjoy this poetic ramble, sit down and libation, I hope that you have something similar to do to revitalise your soul, and as always, please do stay safe in the madness everyone!
