A glittering jewel in the city By Strawberryindigo December 9, 2011 Beautiful Pictures childhood ducks Firwood lake Laurelhurst Park memories photography pictures trees A glittering jewel in the middle of the city, Laurelhurst Park is a outstanding example of an old fashioned neighborhood park. Surrounded by busy streets and winding roads This park is so much more than just a park Here among the curving paths and lush tall pines There is an air of hopefulness that radiates. I have taken many walks here. This is a special place for me full of happy memories. I first came here as a child and fell in love with its elegant but wild beauty. I spent much time here alone with my thoughts. It is here that I learned to appreciate nature and life in all its forms. It is here that my children learned that too. In the middle of the park lies Firwood Lake I call it Laurelhurst pond It is the crown jewel and a main destination spot for most visitors. The ducks enjoy the limelight And we enjoy them. They love to show off their duck dives This is one of my most favorite places in the world Thank you for allowing me to share it with you. Have A Beautiful Day. Strawberryindigo.
