A Postcard from the Park

Wish you were here!
There is green all around me
I feel truly disconnected

I am calm and without any distractions
No emails
No text messages

This is why people travel
Why they want to get away
They just want a break
For even just a day

It’s such a joy to be surrounded by green
These have to be the tallest trees I’ve ever seen

I just might stay here
If I had nothing else to do
But I have to start heading home,
just around the block, pretty soon

I wish you were here
You’d love these woods
I’d stay here forever, if only I could
