Vacation, Destination Majorca

Looking forward to the holiday of a lifetime,
Destination never before ever undertaken, 
A very scary journey for me, I can only imagine being,
As a first time traveler across the world,
From my cold homeland of England,
To flying high, into the brilliant bright blue sky,
Looking out as the fluffy clouds float by,
Bound for sun, sea and glorious sand,
Majorca Island here I come, that’s my plan, 
Suitcase is packed, passport at the ready,
At my age, my world never expected, 
My whole life through, a dream to come true,
What will I do? My desire! First thing, I’ll do,
Take a very large drink then taste in the view,
Enjoying and fun, or taking the plunge,
Swimming or diving, a boat ride to islands,
Or just sunbathing not burning,
But thinking more drinking, some more eating,
And a lot of entertaining,
Having a wonderful time, 
Or just standing a while,
Experiencing the different lifestyle and culture,
Of the Spanish people.
Then very sadly flying back.
Reminiscing for the rest of my life,
And saying “I did that” Wish I was there once again.
So watch out for me! Because here I come.

Hello Wendy. Love your poem. Wish I could get away from this cruel cold and relentless rain. Was in Spain back in September, flying micro-light in mountains around Valencia. Blue sky and sunshine. Take care. Tony
