Park

It’s beginning to dawn, there is silence and calm,
the chairs are empty, the park remains deserted,
very soon though, the silence will disappear, 
people will stroll through, and there will be hustle and bustle,
the listlessness will return at noon as crowds disappear,
the evening will bring a fresh breath of air, 
the park will come alive as little kids jump and play around,
then as the dusk arrives, young and old will occupy the chairs, 
the fountain will sprinkle water again, and trees will glow in the park light, 
then gradually as the night sets in, people will return to their homes, 
silence and calm will return and the park will relax in peace,
waiting for a fresh new day and another round of hustle and bustle.
