Remembering one of my happy places.
Chalmette Monument Memories

A breath of fresh air and a walk in the park.

An early evening stroll before it would get dark.

A chance to gather my thoughts and get peace of mind.

For days that would get rough and not be too kind.

The monument would be the place where I would take my two boys.

When they would were bored, and were too old for toys.

I remember those days when I was younger and in school.

The teachers would take us on fieldtrips to visit this jewel.

A breath of fresh air and a walk in the park.

An early evening stroll before it would get dark.
