boulevard maples
high glass towers, grow taller
the air gets cleaner

tall pink dogwood tree
between you and the neighbours
guards your privacy

lamp post in the park
an entrance to Narnia ...
the sign says keep out

when paradise is labelled
it soon disappears on you

As always, beautiful words and pictures @prydefoltz

Thank you, Denise:)

You cannot enjoy nature at our park for all the signs saying what you cannot do!

Not to mention they ruin a photo:0

Nice photos I like
interestingly described greetings and waiting for the next

Thank you, Cabon:)

A nice photo hmmm

Thank you, Marvis:)

I like this line "grow taller the air gets cleaner" and the dogwood on guard against the neighbors gave me a giggle. #fun post @prydefoltz

Thank you, MM:)

I'm drawn to this idea of paradise disappearing when pointed to - some things are best left unspoken, lest they wither under the spotlight. It gives these scenes such a magical, other-worldly quality (even without the reference to Narnia!). They could vanish at any moment, or turn to something far more ordinary. Sublime :)

Thanks for getting it, Lazarus:)
