Poetic Thursday: No Vacation

It’s Thursday again, and time for poetry. We’re joining our friend Pam, and her kitties, Teddy and Angel Sammy at Two Spoiled Cats for Poetic Thursday.

Last week they provided us with this photo (poor guy) for today’s inspiration:

Here’s my poem:

No Vacation

I know you’re curious, but don’t even ask;
this vacation’s going downhill fast.

Here I sit in a chair in the sand,
holding a fruity little drink in my hand.

No snorkeling for me, but I’m sporting the gear;
folks just laugh when they see me sitting here.

The doctor is saying that I will be fine,
and wrote me a prescription for more ‘island time’.

~These Days Of Mine~

  1. Love the ‘downhill’ pun for an island injury. I’ll take the Dr.’s RX too.

  2. More island time sounds good to me! Good job with the poem – I love this photo.

  3. Let’s see … my guess is he was told he couldn’t do something, and a wager was made … maybe a drunk one … ?!
