If Given a Choice

If given a choice Or had my own way My current address Is not where I’d stay But rather I’d opt For nautical terrain And dwell along The coast of Maine No more meetings Or phones or faxes I’ll dig for clams To pay the taxes.

Maine is beautiful, especially in spring and fall. I vacationed there with my family one year. A peaceful life living on a boat as your poem conveys. : )
