30PD = 9-29-08 (#4)

the bench is hard
cold as a morgue slab
an elegant building rises before me
with bricks the color of Crayola
mac & cheese

behind me, the gardens
Greek columns mark the entrance
to a place holding grasping the
last gauzy threads of summer

bright flowers
sweet smelling carpet
the splash of a mini waterfall
hidden in the jungle
a few crazy birds are awake in this chill
chirping and flapping and
hoping that winter is a silly legend.

I shiver
and hope so too.

- Write about a place with detail and imagery. I sat outside the Hinckley building the other day. -
