The poetic city: Riding the cartwheel in Audubon Park

Riding the Cartwheel in Audubon Park  

 

Walking the walk 

In Audubon Park 

I watch the girl

As she jumps and dips

Twirls and skips

Beside her father

In perfect joy

She executes

The perfect cartwheel.

Then disappearing

Around the bend

Of the circular walk

She leaves behind

Her perfect cartwheel

Where it rolls and grows

Soars and swells

To take its place

Among the galaxies

Spiraling though time

Taking me with it

Along for the ride
