September 30, 2026, Alaska Trip

 

Observing in the Observation Lounge

 

Sun shone through the large window.

A Japanese lady did Tai Chi.

 

Others were reading, eating, chatting or

watching the gentle movement of the sea.

 

I enjoyed hot tea and cookies.

I stared out the window.

 

The sun sparkled on the gray ripples

which stretched out to a gray horizon.

 

Waiters stood ready to clean up

the messes guests left behind.

 

We learned if you want to keep your plate,

hang on to it or it would be swooped up.

 

Somewhere further forward, soft tunes played.

These moments made me feel truly blessed.
