Once Upon A Joy

Daily Note
Every day, a photograph, a poem. Another walk in the park, but every time I step on the walking bridge to enter, I am reminded that its caretaker is no longer. And every repaired stone wall or step, every fixed sprinkler head, or added basketball nets, or trimmed branches I still notice. He is missed.

Once Upon a Joy
Once, in our park,
Filled with autumn’s palette,
that painted my heart with joy—
Arrived a darkness giving way
And stole its caretaker away
Away from his care and tend
And fix and mend
Skilled as nature’s doctor
once, in our park.
