Manatee Lagoon
We went to Manatee Lagoon
But it was not quite opportune
For if there was a manatee,
It wasn’t there for us to see.
To make the best of getting there,
An hour’s drive to who-knows-where,
We took some pictures (smile, please!)
Beside some sculptured manatees.
So looking back, those photos will
Remind me that we can fulfill
Some journeys that we undertake
With memories and proof that’s fake.
