years of joyful walks
all along the trails and paths
now… it’s time to rest 🦊❤️
***
it’s a lonely time
when the snow and cold descend
spring will soon arise 🦊❤️
The park’s paths are lined with benches dedicated to remembering loved ones who no longer walk those beautiful paths and trails. Some of the benches are well cared for, some have fallen into disrepair. It touches me when I see one that has been adorned with seasonal decorations or a simple bouquet of flowers. It angers me when I see ones that have been defaced. When winter cold arrives and they are covered with snow and ice I feel a tug at my heart - there is a lonely feeling. Benches have feelings too. 🦊❤️
