The Fountain in the Park

Gracing the center
Of Ojai, California
At the entrance
To Libbey Park
Lies a circular
Concrete fountain.
On hot summer days
And warm summer nights
Local children
Can often be seen
Bathing within its waters.
Each evening
As the sky darkens
And dusk settles in,
The lights to the fountain
Are turned on
Creating an idyllic spot
For late night strolls
And romantic interludes.
Young couples wander by
Enjoying its watery ambiance
And often stop
And celebrate the wetness
By splashing each other.
