I took a walk

I took a walk down a long long road
I passed an old abandoned home
My shoes, they squished the sodden earth
I found a creek gurgling in mirth
I found two quarters on my way back
I smelled lilacs as I continued my trek
The clouds lit up with golden light
and I couldn't help but smile to voice my delight
The pinks and purples were hidden from view
as I turned the corner to return to you
