Goldfinch60



 

There we were in a wonderful hotel

Enjoying our time together

Away from the normality of homelife

Everything being done for us

We went for a walk along the beach

So long since I have been near the sea

It was wonderful walking by the sea

Walking by the sea with my lover

Back to the hotel we came

Rested for a while until dinner

We came down to the restaurant

A wonderful waitress looked after us

Looked after all our needs

Such a wonderful meal was served

And a glass of wine to satisfy us

We ate in such a relaxed way

We looked at each other across the table

Our love shining like a beacon

Into the lounge we went to have coffee

And to be enternained by a wonderful singer

The time shot by

Up to our room we went

Kissed goodnight and we slept

Slept at peace with ourselves

And so very relaxed

A wonderful day had passed

We awoke at dawns early light

Looked out of the window

At the sea outside our balcony

I went out on the balcony

Coffee in my hand and just stood

Stood feeling the air from the sea

The air from the sea cleansing me

Such a wonderful feeling

 

We got ourselves ready

And went down for breakfast

It had to be full English of course

And there it was in front of me

Fried eggs, bacon sausages

Fired tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans

BUT!

SUCH A BIG BUT!

WHERE WAS THE BLACK PUDDING

IT CANNOT BE A FULL ENGLISH

WITHOUT THE BLACK PUDDING!

WHERE WAS THE BLACK PUDIING!!!!!!

        Thanks for enlightening me on what a full english breakfast is. Still no idea on the black pudding, but I am glad you are having a nice time!!

        • Goldfinch60

          My pleasure Christina, black pudding is a very UK dish and has been so for centuries.

          Yes we had a great time.

          Sounds very nice Andy, what is better than spending a relaxing time with the one you love, there is nothing better than that

          • Goldfinch60

            So very true Melissa, it was very good.

            It's amazing how one little thing like black pudding, and I'm sure it's wonderful, can turn things upside down. The description of your hotel experience reminds me so much of vacations my husband and I have taken, where time is suspended and every little thing you do is special. However, when they don't have granola, yes granola, I might as well have stayed home. Love the absolute fun of this poem!

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Bella.

              Yes they had granola, that is what I normally eat in the morning at home but when on holiday I always have the 'full English'.

              What a fine poetry
              Such a fine description
              I could feel the beautiful scenery, the moments and the hotel by the beach
              And your ending really caught me eyes
              Not expected and came as surprise
              Have a wonderful vacation dear Andy
              Lock those moments with beautiful pictures as well
