The Gift ❤️ A poem by Mark Garry 2010 #Fallowfield

To children of all nations

THIS PARK

For you to run and swing and slide

Dance and sing and climb and ride

And sing and shout whistle and whisper

With Brother Father Friend and Sister

Hold hands with Mam and Gran

Push prams of your own one day

Teach your children how to play

 

And walk and run skip skate and feast

Handstand cartwheel hide and seek

And bat and bowl and kick and score

Read and write and paint and draw

Laugh and smile and kiss and sigh

And float and glide and fish and fly

 

In this “The Peoples Park” with a heart shaped lake this precious gift of love
