Dear Sara,
Having a Wonderful Time!
The food in Italy-sublime
And Norway-your cousin Hans-sweet
New Zealand climbed peaks, saw sheep
Spain loving the tapas and wine
Costa Rica, had a blast on the zip line
Rode great rapids in North Carolina
Now Virgin Islands digging my toes in sugar sand
and
Amazed at the turquoise hue of the sea
Amazed at the turquoise hue of the sea
Don't you wish you were me?
Written for Poetry Jam at poetryjaam.blogspot.com where Laurie invites us to go on vacation! (in 15 lines or less) and OLN at dversepoets.com This is my bucket list--enjoyed by some fictional character, thought it would be a fun way to twist the prompt. Happy Days :-)
ha smiles...that sounds like a nice bucket list for sure...and i like your idea to let someone fictional travel there...what conversations would this spark...smiles..very cool... the world is full of wonderful places..
ReplyDeleteHi Claudia!! It would be fun to keep up that conversation :-) And the world is full of wonderful places, looking forward to exploring soon.
DeleteOh I love your 'bucket list.' Hope you get to do at least SOME of these things, Sara. When, if not now?
ReplyDeleteHi Mary!! We're just at that point when we're going to start traveling more. I'm really looking forward to it:-)
DeleteWow! A lightning trip. It's Tuesday, it must be Belgium!
ReplyDeleteHi JC!! You really made me laugh--I saw that movie when it first came out....
Delete... do you need a travel companion? I'm first in line.
ReplyDeleteHi Helen!! I would love to travel with you :-)

ReplyDeleteHi Kathe, welcome!! Glad you enjoyed my list..hope yo enjoy your day too:-)
DeleteHow fun. Now go do it!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Victoria!! I'm planning on that, already planning the Italy trip--Thanks for encouragement :-)
DeleteNow I don't need to make a bucket list... it would be the same as yours, Sara. (I especially like thoughts of the Virgin Islands and turquoise sea).
ReplyDeleteHi Laurie!! Hope that we'd see each other in some of these places. Virgin Islands was supposed to be the honeymoon, but couldn't do it then...
DeleteLove the way fictional characters make us dream big. Fun poem!
ReplyDeleteHi Janet!! It is fun to play with fiction, glad you enjoyed the poem:-)
DeleteThat me character sure has the life! Such a clever idea to send yourself the postcard!
ReplyDeleteHi Robyn!! I agree, that me character is doing things right :-) Thank you for the compliment, too
DeleteIf you've been to all those places ... yes! I wish I were you!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan!! Nope, just a wish list--maybe in a few years :-) Nice to see you!
DeleteNice wish list :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ayala!! Thank you:-)
DeleteOh how I would LOVE to hop to all those spots right now. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel!! That would be fun--me too:-)
DeleteSounds like a wonderful time to be enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteHi Tatius!! Nice to see you--I think it would be wonderful, thank you:-)
DeleteIt's great to have a Bucket List. I like some of your ideas! I actually did one item - traveled in a car cross country, solo, to deliver a car to our daughter in college. It was quite the experience.
ReplyDeleteThis "Wish you were here" postcard is a perfect answer to the prompt! Thanks also for your affirming comment at my blog on bipolar. Peace, Amy
Hi Amy!! That must have been quite an adventure to go solo. I came from West to East with my ex in 1982. Toyota pick up with camper shell, a parakeet and no A/C. No fun either....Thank you for your kind words:-)
