Trip We Will Never Forget

Trip We Will Never Forget I always had wondered just how wacky Was my wife who is a luscious lovely lady Who around world wanted to go on a cruise And taking me along with her to amuse. Sailed and smiled in and out of each port An envoy of entertainers served as escort And wherever we had gone or tried to go Was through difficult traffic and very slow. Meals served were meant for king and queen Together we sure made such a terrific scene Me in my tuxedo with bright colored bowtie You in a dress that always caught my eye. You certainly looked like an angel in disguise Who from heaven had dropped out of the skies While travelling I spoke with voice so eloquent Full of power and authority wherever we went. What had proved to be most interesting to me While we traveled together had started to see As great trip continued on and time went by You were not ever with I but some other guy. James Thesarious Hilarious Horn Retired Veteran and Poet I had a friend who was stationed in Thailand and ended up with agent orange when his was 70 over 50 years later. We were in the Air Force together and both ended up with degrees using the GI Bill. Wow.
