Happy Tuesday. It’s time again for poetry with Pam and kitties at Two Spoiled Cats.
This is the photo inspiration for this week:
Although it’s felt a bit like that recently in our corner of southeast Virginia, I can’t imagine actually being in that setting.
Here’s my poem:
That’s Why
Yes, it was hot and it was dry,
And, yes, you’re probably wondering why.
Why was I there on that mountain of sand?
Was I just trying to prove I’m a man?
But when the day comes and I rock in a chair,
I’ll smile and remember that I was there.
Looking back won’t make me sad;
no need to say “I wish I had”.
But those rocking chair days will have to wait.
Adventure is calling, and it’s a date.
~These Days Of Mine~
these days of mine 
Yay!
Walking through the desert is definitely not on my wish list but I’m sure there are those who would enjoy the challenge. I love the variety of poetry I’ve read today from this photo’s inspiration! Well done my friend….no regrets is a good theme!
Pam
YES!!! Ready for an adventure, and I agree that a walk through the desert is not on my list. GREAT poem.
Fitting poem! I’d rather ride through the desert than walk. 😉
Well done!! I like your take on it!
I wonder what will be next for him ?
This particular adventure shown here wouldn’t last very long for me !!
Loved it!! You nailed it again.
