Tourism Poems - Poems about Tourism

I venture forth, an explorer true, Seeking knowledge, with heart anew. Idanre's hills, a treasure to behold, Ancient secrets, yet to be unfold. The people, industrious, with hearts of gold, Welcomed me, with stories untold. Their cocoa farms, a lush, green sight, I harvested with them, under the sun's warm light. Their water, a natural blessing, pure and fine, Quenched my thirst, and revived...

Petroglyphs scattered All over Hawaii Carved on black volcanic rocks Mysterious they are Stoke human curiosity Unendingly Human and other forms Numbers and writings Carved by the island’s ancient natives Long before the Whites entered the scene No one can gauge What they truly meant We are left with guesses and conjectures Lots of touristic balderdash Me, a frail, wavering human frame At late seventies Walked across the blackness On cracked volcanic...

Superficial impressions, like the sunset ripple Museums, beaches, cafes by the score The phrasebook conversations with the service people Cliches in their predictable galore You’re saved from depth and filled with little pleasures The charms of tourism, early breakfasts, late night bed You travel light or loaded, spot some treasures And file them in the archive, to forget. ...

Every tourist shares a trait; they're walking, talking, f*cking bait Who fog up our Earth's finest places With fat wallets and fat f*cking faces If you live in a City or by the sea I'm sure you'll likely, mostly agree; These scavengers of our landscape may pay cash but leave in their wake a disgraceful dash I admire their carelessness; why should I have...

As I was in national park virunga  and I saw a zebra which was giving birth and one black and white cobra passed by there. I admired their colours and took some pictures to show my kids about the adventures in DRCongo parks. Next day , I climbed  with some friends  Nyiragongo mount to see the volcano which sometimes ...

August spider webs become thick as February snow wisps Accumulating on our window sills If each of us All eight billion Could stand in line in gardens and beside the sea And wait our turn To blast far up in outer space And spend two minutes Gazing down to our primate planet Earth Through a little window Perfectly fit to the size of all our...

As poet who was visiting some places To cook a piece of poetry, suddenly you met some  psychologists who were  worshipping some animal statues. You continued  with your tour, you came across some very educated people at a graveyard who were speaking to the dead folks. You are told to mention about their ( IQ)...

Regina city councillors under fire For ad campaign’s not looked at prior How someone did not think to inquire Check the news if you think me a liar This province had some odd news breaks Like the Tim Hortons with the snake… The moose in the school for hoof’s sake But this capital city goof takes the cake I suppose they were hoping...

Ground Zero came at one hundred degrees. A fusing of life and death. The graveyard came at twelve O’Clock Not a single body to be seen. From that infinite shadow I saw a light. A woman. A goddess. A broken flame. All that remained was a broken sky; That holocaust of endless crimson. The purged sky, forever more, And hopeless onlookers were we. The woman...

On Hollywood Boulevard Grohman’s Chinese theater, The Walk Of Fame Awestruck, frantic crowds tromp down the street A swirl of accents divulge from whence they came Myth and stark truth clash but rarely meet A boulevard of tinsel, tourist mecca anointed Foreign visitors now the sole true attraction All a hyped-up charade, but no disappointment Quiet on the set, lights cameras, action! Remove tourists,...

When the crystal clear surf Defends its turf It Bashes Then Crashes Making a beach like sound That relaxes the whole sea shore town Listening to the way the ocean pounds Maybe it’s the weather That greets the visitors with this good looking letter Traffic builds when the weekend arrives Giving the locals a reason...
