Italy Trip Day 37
I’m glad for uneventful drives.
Just sit and drive, at last we’re home.
And good to see my plants still thrive.
Friend cared for them; I was in Rome.
What’s this? I have to cook again?
I had a chef, but that was then.
Yard work and clean and teach and write.
I think I’ll rest just one more night.
Italy Trip Day 36
I’m winding down and gearing up.
Last minute tasks, ready to go.
We splurged on takeout for our sup.
It is my birthday soon, you know.
Poor Lori had a belly ache.
So Eli went for meds to take.
We played a game. I watched a show.
Next morning will be time to go.
Italy Trip Day 35
It’s fall, but the tall tree is green.
No rain has come for many weeks.
My own cute yard waits like a dream.
And soon I’ll drive by mountain peaks.
I’ll say goodbye to son and sis.
There’s never been a trip like this.
In Arizona, time to go.
I’ll soon, look out my home’s window.
Italy Trip Day 34
Today, I looked at what I spent.
On souvenirs, food, and the like.
I wondered where my money went.
No wonder, I can’t buy a bike.
Exploring Italy was great.
Where will we go at future date?
Right now, I’m ready to go home.
With thoughts of Tuscany to Rome.
Italy Trip Day 33
I’m barely moving with the flu,
A runny nose and itchy throat.
Since I’ve been here, have lots to do.
But to do nothing gets my vote.
Played Canasta with my daughter.
She is playful like an otter.
I gave them all their souvenirs.
And they got many through the years.
Italy Trip Day 32
We walked and talked in Youngstown park.
We said goodbyes to oldest Sis.
Time spent with sisters was a lark.
All five of us were up for this.
And then to Mesa, a long flight.
Arrived there well into the night.
And rushed to hubby’s open arms.
Glad I was kept from all that harms.
Italy Trip Day 31
It would be nice to teleport,
With no more cars, trains, or airplanes.
To travel would be such a sport.
No weaving in and out of lanes.
By travel we would get our kicks.
Tomorrow, I’d beam to Phoenix.
Teleport, or by car and plane,
The joy of seeing hubby—same!
