If there is one thing I enjoy, it’s a beautiful walk through a gorgeous park on a sunny day. A few weeks ago I went to one of the most peaceful parks here in Westminster. She isn’t every big and she is kind of hidden away too were if you didn’t know where you were going; you’d miss her. I have found as a writer, parks are great places to go when trying to gather ideas for a new piece. It’s a relaxing place to lose yourself for a moment and really just let the breeze take you over. Like most things that are hidden from the naked eye this place is a diamond in the rough waiting for someone to walk across her soil grounds one more time.
Anyways I do hope that ya’ll enjoy this little diamond in the rough for I know I surely do when writers block is blasting its way through my thoughts. At first glance there really isn’t much to her, but once you have walked her soils on a warm sunny day and sat upon her quiet presence, you’ll understand what it is that makes this place so beautiful.
Happy Steeming
