Vintage Park Bench

Friday, April 12, 2013

Benches line the parks and boulevards of
Paris.


This vintage park bench sits in my backyard under a pear tree.


Sitting on the bench transports me to Paris.



Remembering beautiful historic parks tucked into the neighborhoods...


Parisians reading a book or newspaper,


Meeting friends for a leisurely conversation... 


My backyard becomes my own private Parisian park filled 
with birdsongs,
with leaves rustling in the breeze,


and with memories of a time and place faraway.
