Across the Seas

Across the Seas

.......Are so many countries and peoples,
...... I will sadly ~  never see.
.......Too many years have passed.
.......Takes "geld" to go.

......Made the mistake of hesitating.
......And now,travel restricted?
......Imagine me looking up at Big Ben!
......And wearing a mask?

......No thanks, will stay home.
......In my lovely den.
......Fear and I, are long divorced.
......Sadder, too, US jobs are outsourced!

I agree...never put off life -- far too precious, and one never knows what tomorrow will or will not bring. Well said!

Yes the mask madness has swept the globe. Not to mention all of the travel restrictions has forced people into loss of freedom.

Good idea, Tom. The USA has much beauty but too many states rule as tyrants. Surprised they don't lop op off free thinking brains. I am sure the UK is lovely... Part two is why would I go where as an American, I get aVISA marked, despicable? I never hated another country. But through PS know how other countries feel about Americans. I just never knew that ...all my life. I don't know why and do not care. So...why travel anywhere? Pangie
