TRAVELING THE WORLD

At eighteen I had only one time
been out of the State of Washington
A trip to Knots Berry farm
I was car sick the whole two weeks
Joined the Air force rode a bus
Flew in a two man trainer jet
three days to San Antonio Texas
Chicago, San Antonio, again and Korea
High above a bluff below Inchon harbor
By mistake in North Korea backed out
Tokyo Japan on a fast moving tram
A day walking up Mt Fuji
Then I met she loves to travel
Drove the United States in a car
Flew to Hawaii from savings a fruit jar
From Germany to Amsterdam on a train
In a small bus we were crammed
Saw Italy, Rome, the leaning tower
"Three Coins in a Fountain."
The Isle of Capri far above the sea
In places where you share a shower
Saw Singapore Japan things a shore
Now she has discovered auctions
Won a trip to Fiji Islands in a raffle
Saw New Zheland,Ireland, found Irish family castle
Bid three thousand, five hundred on a trip to Africa
Dubia, the largest building and waterfountain
Walked in a Capetown local market
Stood high above on Table mountain
watched a Cheetah kill and found it natural
Rhinos, Elephants caged man eating shark tank
Trust me just the beginning wore out my wallet
Now its hockey and another sports auction
Have I told you I don't like places cold
Yes I have been to Anchorage Alaska for the Idirod dog races
If she raises her hand I am putting my foot down
It won't work-----------------------! Iceland
