Travel

Zip-zip-zip the suitcases go
And we all pile into the car, ready to start the show 
It’s that time of year
When my family and I travel to far away places full of cheer

Spellbound with giddiness I am
Ready to cross the border into a foreign land
Beep-beep-beep the metal detector sounds
With each techno ring I hear, in serendipity I am soused

Fly-fly-fly we zoom through the sky 
I watch through the window as the cotton candy clouds go by
My heart prancing in my chest
The others in a serene slumber but my effervescent exhilaration refused to let me rest 

Step-step-step I head down the stairs 
With each step my agog amplifies in pairs
New horizons I see
A land exquisite and entirely extrinsic to me
Besides me stands my family
Supplying all amity I might ever need
