Alongside the path
Fresh water flows, and
In the willow’s shade
Just for a little while
Would I take my ease…

But rarely
Did he visit-now
‘Tis all in the past, and
Since then in the garden
Every single trace has gone.

how cool it is!
in summer, beneath trees
as if in flower.

such are the things of the past-

and someone up the pathway through the field,

Oak Street Plaza Park is a hardscape, cobblestone area with cafe tables and chairs where people are invited to enjoy a break from shopping and chat with their friends.
In the summer, children (as well as a dog or two) are fascinated with the water as it jumps from the sculpted “rocks’ or sprits in the air from the cobblestone.
