Fond Holiday Memories.

Goldfinch60



Well, that’s it! 

The week away is over, 

A great week with my lover. 

We walked along the beach, 

Walked among the greenery, 

Played some games, 

Didn't win any quizzes, 

But had great fun trying. 

There was music there for us, 

A wonderful jazz band 

Playing every night. 

The food was wonderful 

And my lover and I enjoyed, 

Enjoyed every moment. 

But there was also something special. 

We met a nice couple 

And spent much time with them. 

We had formed a new friendship 

Which was becoming stronger each moment, 

And we would see them again, 

See them again in the future. 

So as we drive away 

From our week on the island 

We will have memories, 

Such fond memories 

Of Barbara and Peter, 

Which we will remember.

    You was somewhat nearer to my home town. Did ya hear my singing?! heehee.

    • Goldfinch60

      No, luckily the band managed to drown out your singing. LOL

      My fond memories of the Isle of Wight:
      Sandown, learned to swim, skies aways bright.
      Include the same romantic boarding house;
      A paddle steamer arrival – that’s right!

      I must get it together and write about my childhood holidays - abandon the misery stuff…….

        Glad I brought back such wonderful memories Dave.

        It's a pity Teddy's gone. She and I were getting up a campaign of 'The Cabbage Party to Rule'. Similar to The Monster Raving Loony Party. And why haven't enough people voted for them? lol. Maybe we succeeded partly - 'Lettuce for PM' as they said!

        That sounds like an excellent little trip you had there!

          It certainly was Rik, we had a great time.

          Beautiful!
          (words that distil, the simplicity
          in appreciating
          our gifted shards of happiness
          that accumulate over time
          to form our trophied mementos
          of life)

            So true Mek, thank you.
