just looking aroundjust looking around
so much space to explore
travelling but local
what i've never seen before is what i thought i saw
i return home amazed
gas tank full and more money left in my pocket
just looking around
mouth wide open and on the grounded floor
more worldly but local
what i've never seen before is what i thought i saw
i return...

Quote by poet.
I went to France for the very first time and decided to go exploring,
the girl at the hotel told me about the beautiful woods that were nearby.
She gave me a map and I got in...

Light Hearted Kid
Do you remember when phones had a cord to the wall outlet?
Our son was about five years old.
We were in a hotel room and he wanted to call daddy.
He ran over to the phone and picked it up.
As he looked at me with a very puzzled look, he said it has no dial...

ON OUR VACATION IN RIO
The nights near your endearing, deep cocoa skin,
Silently, splendiferous, in this, sensitive , Spring we revel in.
Samba music fingers, paint energetic dancers on the Spring walls,
Lost in the beckoning and hypnotically, loves’s, passionate night call.
You quiet my soul, with your tender, intoxicating, loving tenacity,
And create sweet hours, revelling in our world to poetic capacity!

A friend in need is a friend indeed2025.3.17
How true was it?
"A friend in need is a friend indeed"
T and I were friends for half a century.
Our friendship fell out three times over these years,
During our youth included our adulthood.
Each time, I honestly have not a clue
What had happened?
She remained extremely cold and distance.
After many attempts, I respected her decisions,
Just waited till she...

God Took A VacationGod took a Vacation
Talk about a hell of a mess!
God took a vacation
no one on-call to bless
not angel nor saint could fill
God's abundant Grace-plate
God took a vacation
left the world to determine
its own Apple-inclined fate.......

new computersOur burdens are lifted—it’s spring break, after all.
Though ocean breezes, surf sounds, the smell of sunblock,
fresh tans and bottomless margaritas at the beach can be healing,
we decided to vacation on campus and find joy in small, everyday things.
Yesterday, we went to the farmer’s market, where one coffee vendor was making real cappuccinos and another was...

under its spell
summer time in Crete was intoxicating
the beach the sky the sun the sea
our vacation was coming to its abrupt end
we said our goodbyes and promised to return
knowing we were leaving our hearts behind

spring breakageUniversity midterm periods bring early mornings charged with energy drinks and espresso shots. Evenings are spent trading quizlets in Bass Library or in late night cram sessions in the common room. After several days of stressful testing, midterms suddenly end.

I Need a VacationThere's only so much I can stand.
I'll go nuts with one more demand.
Boss, take me from the rotation -
oh, the joy of a vacation.
What a relief, I had to stop.
I can feel my blood pressure drop
where no one knows my location -
oh, the joy of a vacation.
It's nice to watch the river flow,
nothing to do,...
