I love old parks with
cave-like shadows
from towering trees
etched with affection
that looks like “JB loves AZ”
with a heart around it
blurred by time and the
rough wrap of bark
leaving me to guess
the correct initials
imagine the sunny day
it was carved
how long ago
and if the moment
of happiness rooted
and grew
if love in the shade
became a life in the sun
