Sightseeing at Home
My husband and I love to travel
And in cities we like to explore –
Museums and zoos
And places with views,
Plus gardens and markets galore.
We wander down street unfamiliar;
Try restaurants that we don’t know
And sometimes we chat
About where we’re all at
With some locals we’ll meet as we go.
Yet today, a few subway stops took us
To a cool park that we’d never seen
And I felt, I must say,
Just like we were away,
Getting out of our normal routine.
There are treasures so often forgotten
In the cities where we rest our heads
And we needn’t go far
To get to where they are
And still sleep in our own cozy beds!
