From Doing Nothing

From doing nothing, suddenly My days are getting filled With plans like those which Covid Did delay or outright killed. I’m constantly reminded That my age will soon prevent Travel to the many places Where, in fantasies, I went. So for now, while I’m still able, It’s the time to set in place Trips once written on my calendar I was afraid to face. I remain a little nervous, Just in case you couldn’t tell, But we only have one life to live So I say, what the hell!

Go for it Ilene, I plan to take off as much as I can whilst my health allows, we just don't know what is around the corner. Tom
