I wrote this poem this past summer while I sat on a city bench located on the north east corner of central park.
A couple sits on the green city bench
The light fixture watches over
Summer night provides the setting
It's mildly humid but getting cooler
The sun has gone but a glow still remains
Children still play with their toys
A young girl in blue rides her bike
Firlflies intrigue the curious boy
The pond is calm and resting for now
She has been busy all day
The time has come for her to sleep
Softly breathing as she quietly lay
Caught up in this present moment
Overjoyed and quite elated
Glad I took time to simply be
Glad I sat, wondered and waited
