Franks Park, By: Phillip Jordan

January 12, 2026 by Phillip Jordan

Franks Park, By: Phillip Jordan

That photograph look could be a Bob Ross painting along the green chain walk

New pathways my sons and their friends created among the oaks and beeches are old tracks, my brother and I along with friends once rambled, played football, fought, drank, preambled having a laugh

Still that hurricane of ’87 blows me away invasive brambles have overgrown where trees once stood

How quick the paint has dried.
