Travels

~ V.J. Knutson

First frost we are plotting –
elaborate schemes to escape
winter’s unforgiving chill.

Palm trees and blue waters,
the flight of parading pelicans –
such allure for aging Northerners.

Years past, we have travelled far –
Europe, Scandinavia, and Mediterranean –
this season, Texas has captured our hearts.

(For Lens-Artists challenge: my travels.)

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.
