A Walk In The Park Poem by David Taylor

A Walk In The Park

Rating: 5.0


A quiet anxiety in the heart.
A stilling pause of contemplation.
A soothing stroll through the park.
An acknowledgement of your invitation.
A hush descends on all around.
The birds are flying skyward bound.
Their wings beating in my heart,
and the mind soars to distant parts.
I come to rest and cease to be
that anxious, small, identity.

David, This one is so peaceful, and conjures up everything that a walk in the park should be...a place to clear one's mind...to rest one's soul... Hugs, Dee

'The birds are flying skyward bound. Their wings beating in my heart' loved the poem... a perfect 10, walk in the park is often a walk into yourself ultimately finding that you are a part of universe and thus growing outwards... like heartbeats and the bird. added it to my favourite poem

David, I loved the visual effect in this poem. Took into the park and I wanted to stay there. A lovely rhythm that made each line flow into the next. Thanks for sharing it. David
