It all started with a dream to travel the world
Quit my job and explore
December thirty first two thousand twelve
For one-fourth of the year in Europe I roamed
Czech Republic Sweden France Italy
Slovakia Switzerland two times Germany
Norway Denmark Luxembourg Scotland
Netherlands Austria Belgium England
Wanderlust clinging growing
I itch and scratch
Job free, three hundred sixty five days
Not the original plan, not complaining
Utah Hawaii DC Virginia
Colorado New York Idaho California
Snowshoes to snorkeling and two pierced ears, pain
Just a little, chocolate, gelato in the US not the same
Nine one-way flights, five round trips, my favorite mode oftravel
Feet and Train
One pair of boots carried me through
Resoled battered I sure wish they had drains
Black, houndstooth, plaid umbrellas
Silver and polka dots the latter the good fella
How many days ‘til the money runs out
hmmm, that’s no fun, let’s not count
The people the experiences precious time with: Christmassisters
College roommates
Supportive Family, Friends priceless.
My nieces and nephews in all their cuteness are the realhipsters
December thirty first I sit on a Seattle bound plane
What a beautiful year twenty thirteen
