Snow covered the bare branches
Barks covered in sap
Cold breath leaving the mouths of the tired pupils
As they walk around the park
And leave through the spikey gate

Blossoms hit along the bark of the trees
Branches filled with the scent of fresh flowers
Picked off by smiling students
The pillars each hold a special message
Jet black locks close the doors to joy
Trunks growing larger
Green vines take over the brown roots
As they release a sign of relief
Leaving the school- for what they hope is eternal!
Now the statues are all alone

Orange, Yellow, Red
Bright hues have filled te bough
The wind starts howling at the exhausted pupils
The posts above bidding them farewell
The barrier stays open for those with dogs.
