Re-Discovering the Abandoned Playground

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Retracing old roads in Newport,

I found the forgotten playground.

Still there was the circular cut plywood:

The manual merry-go-round.

 

Each of my Boxers loved the ride,

Eagerly awaiting to ride it again…

Now fifteen years later, I sat alone.

Pushing my foot for one last spin.
