“Travel like Ghandi, with simple clothes, open eyes and an uncluttered mind.” Rick Steves


World Wide Wednesday Presents: Mallorca, Part Four, Night

The evening filled
With colourful lights
Cool wind chilled
Time to head inside
The Aquarium a choice
Listening to sealife’s voice
Sharks swimming in tanks
Where a ship had sank
Luminescent jellyfish
But not served as a dish
Enjoying the night life
Of this little town in south

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page” St. Augustine

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Mallorca Part Three, Odds and Ends

Taking a ride on a train
On this island of Spain
Driving down a narrow lane
Watching the local terrain
Sun is shining, no rain
Sipping on champagne
Feeling very entertained
Passing the mountain chain
And the flattest of plains
There is nothing mundane
About this trip across the domain

“Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs” Susan Sontag

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Mallorca, Part One

Palma Nova
The sweetest Rosa
Of the island Mallorca

Welcomes
The weary traveler
A world’s passenger

Come
And take a load off
Forget all that scoff
Enjoy the sunny beach
Watch the waves breach

Colourful and vibrant
Like a water hydrant
The little village by the sea
No better place to be

World Wide Wednesday Presents:Athens, Acropolis

“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart” Helen Keller

World Wide Wednesday Presents:Athens, Acropolis

Basking in the sun
Athens, Acropolis
A place of fun
A place of knowledge

Climbing up the mountain
Looking for the fountain
Of wisdom and history
Shrouded in mystery

Walking in the footsteps
Of the ancient Greeks
But, watch your steps
On the narrow streets

Once reaching the top
The effort but one hop
The view of awe and beauty
You know it really was your duty
