Artwork Description:

Summer by The Serpentine, Walking wide and lonely forking trails Passing summer games with unknown names With flags flying tied to stirring trees, Fifty stars and stripes riding in the breeze Playing with the Union Jack, I fall back And I sit a while on the wooden bench That s carved with dedication to X who loved this Park. And watch the wind pulling laughing tears from the giant tree A black, green, white bird hopping to the lone Saxophonist s notes Hit The Road Jack Flying above these streaming fields of gold As sunlight falls on knee high tall and golden grasses Like the mane of someone s sweet girlfriend from Nordic Passes I start when the music stops, open my eyes Rudely pulled from Summer s dream When next the music plays I ll find it s player It plays twice and each time I fall, into a slumber, Conquered by this park. Finally I play hide and seek in yellow grass Running from horses on the sandy trail Passing all the captured hearts That lie under summer trees Listening to sweet music floating in a carefree breeze He stands, lone African against the bark, Playing, leaves brushing his hair As he dares to lift the glittering Sax Exacting notes that catch the light and fly, Everywhere, shining, casting it s spells His fingers press the, side, bell keys Trees and people fall to their knees Rowers on The Serpentine fall silent, As clouds, water and sun, move To the time controlling, fine, Saxophone
