and those who do not travel
read only a page”
Saint Augustine

Take a stroll
To the town hall
In the tiny town
Of Verbania
I am telling ‘ya
It’s a hoot!

“The world is a book,
and those who do not travel
read only a page”
Saint Augustine
Verbania, Italy
Sailing, sailing
Over the lake away
Watching, finding
All kinds of things to say
About this quaint city
In this land of Italy

“I have always wanted
a swimming pool
but never had one”
Joan Didion
Poolside
Day
Spend a day
By the pool
Put on your shades
Just to look cool
The others
May be jealous
But never mind
They just drool
Because you
Are sitting
By the pool
In your very cool
Shades

Poolside
Eve
Night fall
By the pool
Watching
The setting sun
Just because
You can
The cool breeze
From the fan
The water dark
Will give you a spark
The last rays
Like fire
Waking
Your desire
To jump in
Oh heck
Just take a swim
Clothes torn aside
When swimming
Deep in the waters

These Finns talk in funny accents and drink lots of coffee.
They drive like nuts, because rally is in their bloods.
They sit naked in the middle of freezing cold in a lake or a pond.
In return, they have this dark small lodge, called the Sauna,
where they sit naked in a hundred degree heat.
Then later in July, when the sun comes out once a year, the complain about a twenty degree heat.

Sunsets and horseback rides
In the sandy open wide
Beach life at its best
Or something else you can suggest?
