A Happier Place

To sit by the river,

The sun on my face,

Transports me at once

To a happier place.


I know that so many 

Would never agree,

But the city (and river!)

Are perfect for me.


The view isn’t private

And quiet, it’s not,

Yet this bench by the river’s

A wonderful spot.


A cat on a leash

Jumped up, looking to share,

But she left with her owner

To I don’t know where.


There’s always a chance

For a little surprise 

When I sit by the river

With wide-open eyes.
