The Battered old Bench

by justchillin

      The battered old bench, is beckoning to me
  somehow knowing, that tiredness is taking its toll
        I sit silently, in awe of this perfect place
                       Truly an artistic vision
 The grass, so green, glistening from a sudden shower
  and now the soothing sun, encourages gentle growth
    A red rhodedendron sways lazily, losing its petals
  whilst a cherry coloured camelia still stands proudly
     even though most of its fine flowers have fallen
        Trees and shrubs blend bountifully together
                in shades of green, grey, and gold
     Bees are buzzing happily, as pollen is their prize
                while passing by on their journey
               A robin lands, just a foot from me
                displaying a rich, ruby red breast
         It turns towards me, head held on one side
             showing me it shares my sentiments
        Such breath taking beauty, fills me with joy
              and a warm tingling from top to toe
          A big black cloud bursts, and rain falls
                       stopping the silence
       A few moments of magic, free for all to see
