Toads: Free Verse Travelogue

Imaginary Garden With Real Toads
Words Count ~ Vacation



Photo by Grace Beam, Cinque Terre, Italy


first we had Italy
poppies, Tuscany,
wisteria, espresso
trains, and young love

seven years later
honeymoon in France
Provence sans lavender
heavenly gelato,
chocolate croissants

what will be next?
you say perhaps Greece
or Barcelona sounds nice
back to Italy or France
any will do
just let me know
and my dreams will take hold

  2. Patricia, Sherry, and Helen, thank you so much for reading. Not such good writing but all that came to mind with the prompt. Brain not working too well. Will be reading other entries as I can. Eye issues will be for months before can be fixed with laser. And dizziness from just being me. Am wanting to keep up. Please forgive my slowness or if I miss anyone's poetry to the prompts.
