Summer Vacation

Summer Vacation

I wish I had
joined the lobster fest in Onset
  bid at the art auction on Gifford Street
    taken a ferry trip to the Vineyard
       watched the fireworks celebration.
All,  I should have done,
   but didn’t.

Still, I did do some things
   wrote a poem about summer
     read  a history of the Middle Ages
        lunched with friends at the Chinese buffet
          created glass and paper pieces
            listened to koto music.

On the other hand, I wasted time
   watched Poirot and Miss Marple
      found inane facts on the net
        read comics and chuckled
          played FreeCell on the Kindle.

I did some things I should have,
   didn’t do some things I should have,
      wasted time on some things,
                            and I’m glad.

  1. I'm still reading the Search for Shakespeare book you recommended. Interesting Elizabeth I drama. Bob S.
