Kilometers I Have Travelled

MILES HAVE I SAILED

Miles have We travelled on globe and by sea
Airliners, boats, locomotives and cars carried me

Buses plus bicycles, skates and foot
Of activity and travel I've known a whole lot

Over earth and even oceans and atmosphere above
Felt urge to explore and all Nature to enjoy

On infant's scooters I first learned to ride
Not aware of all upcoming rides close to

Cycled quiet roads finding island please
And the slow tranquil ride in a new ferry at nighttime

I've enjoyed driving smooth miles about a bike
Done lots of taking walks but failed to hitch rise

Skimmed on ice in order to fall from skates and crashed
Wandered in sun, and even in showers associated with rain I've dashed

I've rowed around the Torrens and experienced such fun
Ferry rides on Questionnaire Harbour and Swan

Travelled trams and even buses and cabs, also
Electric blue sparks of a trolley bus to the zoo

We have shared with plenty a few days on some sort of cruise
Roamed exotic markets new food items to choose

Trying to find on catamarans and yachts
Hearing wind in sails and talk of deep sea knot

Fascinated I've seen castles inside Portugal
Imagined ancient times and olden dance

Motor sailing on tropic seas warm
Going through the alternative coral islands' appeal

Scary car-ride together with a short sighted friend
Whose learner's frailties I can not offend

I've learned to take flight within a Tiger moth aged
And mastered driving a car in the particular cold

Experienced torrid traffic hooters
Delicately ridden on Italian scooters

Driven thousands of distance above dry sands
In addition to flown thousands associated with miles to isolated lands

Covered several hostile miles without having terror
On steamer chugged and explained through the Bight

We enjoyed the vessel trip and ocean's sight
As I have gone east in order to west and delivered by air travel

The great Nullarbor Simple I've watched glide by
Where you won't see a forest if you blink the eyesight

As the particular train rushes together from east in order to west
Or from west to eastern side, if it's there you love best

Lulled to sleep by rhythm regarding train's strong tires
I've known train-travel and the ease and comfort it feels!

Mls over desert to seek desert nicely
I've travelled short, brave trips in a camel

Vast stretches of deserts been seen by me
And high mountains of snowed Himalaya

Been in an olden auto in high Kathmandu
Drunk with elegance of Mt Annapurna

I've been by yourself in the older portion of Kathmandu
Looking I can have experienced luck to satisfy an individual

Walking round London's grey wintry town
Longed that I'd personally more than some sort of day - 'twas a pity

We've alone sped clean in refined taxi
And free using the wind within my hair on the bike

Midst fierce storms I've identified rough roll of waves
I've identified the smooth quiet flight of the glider

I've observed the Gulf of mexico, silvered by Celestial body overhead
Smelted magic, whiteness in night-time gloom

We have strolled promenade's companionable ways
And go to get to be able to a gathering on time some days

I've swum a couple of miles - of course, only a few
In surf, water, pool, bay, coral formations isle too

Climbed the high area cliffs of Head of the family Howe
Walked by means of nature's lush rainforest below

Dived together with flippers below typically the vast coral marine
Hence the underwater entire world also revealed to be able to me

I've overlooked, leaped and quite a few floated in room
Twirled and swirled inside dance in absolute grace

I've performed lots of tennis, exercised vigorous, free
I've bent, helped my garden in addition to hugged a tree

Wandered gentle miles associated with botanic gardens plus flowers
In botanic gardens spent many satisfying several hours

Skilled Fiji in summer- tourists humid joy
Contrasting our country's dry heat plight

Enjoyed miles throughout markets' exotic delights
Buying vivid garments and many fruits treasures

Noumea was the time to stop for languid waiting around,
With scarlet poincianas my great convenience

Tahiti on entrance was sultry, unusual, heavy, sizzling
Without having motivation I really don't like it a whole lot

I've sauntered lower laneways and operate a race
Ridden the stubborn old nag in an overseas spot

I bear in mind fond rides on the old designed tram
And yearned for your gipsy house in the caravan

I've had static occasions and simple joys associated with a home
Moving as inclined as almost all free spirits wander

I've danced the reel with some sort of partner in cotillon
And taken a new hesitant walk on stilts

Both polka and waltz We've skipped and danced
Even astral travelled as I've slept entranced

I've traveled the world the breezes in tropic waters hot
Waters smooth, obvious with no worry of harm

I have known hardness involving bumped travel in a jeep
And even suffered later when you get to sleep

I've slept cold, alone within a sleeping carrier
On the dark starry night, on a new mountain crag

Ski lifts of Switzerland alpine mountains as a result white
Offered beautiful views from their cool height

I've flown over the white wine snows of typically the Alps
And over the eternal hard grey blue regarding the sea

To Peru's Lima plus old Cusco too
And by tour bus weaved our method as much as Macchu Picchu

Present at Macchu Picchu at final, quite still
Drinking in the beauty as I know you can

When a person travel the a long way over land and sea
To old ruins, where mists rise ethereally

I have heard the magic songs of Andean flutes
Played inside the dry out high Andean Mountain tops

Ridden the weighty red earth of plantation woods
Of coffee - using an old nag as mount to me

Observing the red earthed farms inside of Brazil
Not caffeine but people attract me there nonetheless

There're many techniques There are travelled the a long way
So a lot of I can scarcely think to count number...

Rickshaws of navigate novelty commonly observed
But mean, pain-racked the poor drivers experience been

Travel by Indian pull-carts does cause a scam
Till thought has in order to the poor ft of the car owner groundling

I love the lull involving the railway click-clack
Comfort, content instructions going forward, certainly not again

Many the particular ways to savor previous travel days and nights
Maintained by essence associated with memories techniques

Thrilled by travel, yet often tired out by it
New things been seen plus delights often discussed

There're many okay travel modes Trying to find shown
Yet 1 remains only to be able to spacemen known

Actually dreaming, my heart and soul astral travels area
Returning at morn with smile in my deal with

Although the nicest motion I now delight in
May be the pure freedom my mind flight gives me

My thoughts features the wings These days most enjoy
Once i want to vacation from here to generally there

Mind knows little limit, no tickets to get
Passport and even route by creativeness is placed

Spirit loves natural thrill involving go see
Fresh faces, new spots, new flowers in addition to forest

Strange routines and customs, panoramas galore
But following a while modern travel can demonstrate a bore

The younger travel mls satiate our spirit until
We can say that it can time to change and be even now

Now instead of traveller's strong need to roam
Is definitely a longing intended for blessed place to call home

This remains that we all access beauty of all travel delight
When trapped in the wealth of each of our memory's employ

Of the wonder, wildness, herbal glory of existence
We're privileged to possess known it without any strife

Our world's now threatened in numerous a way
Times for safe travelling are much less day by day

I've recognized many modes, motions, travelled ways
And enjoyed the a lot of miles of my personal travelling days

Yet perhaps best associated with all I want jogging foot
And even being old now I desire the majority of to stay put

Time now to recline on my sofa with T. V.
To let all travel experience come to me.

...................

To remember travel, new views and sounds
Different strange people foot touching new ground
Nature and cities north, south, distance and west
Almost all places have a new great charm of their own
As we test freedom's wings and our center sings

Memory reminds of the great wild,
The glory, the advantage of the complete world
Recalling traveling delights, I sit on my lounger
Mind without limit, no tickets in order to get,
No passport, injections or noisy jet

No energy now required for muscle tissue, limb
No explanation to worry that eyes are poor
No need rely in technology's talent
Zero need to concern a major accident or spill
Quite the finest of all motion I now appreciate totally free
Is this wonderful free air travel my mind gives to me!...........
