Almost everyone has one
Whether they know it or not
To be at peace in nature
Or winner of a lottery jackpot
Dine of fine Italian cuisine
Or paint a stunning masterpiece
Climb Mt. Everest
Find cures for the world’s disease
Swoon to all hours of the night
Adopt a rescue animal
Be the first to set foot on Mars
Put behind bars a wanted criminal
Cross the finish line
Of the famous Boston Marathon
Sing your heart out at the Grand ‘Ole Opry
Look across the Grand Canyon
All these things and hundreds more
On many a Bucket List
Personally, I’ve compiled
Choices I can’t resist
Master the art of an acoustic guitar
Shake the hand of Mr. Carl Yastrzemski
Drive my‘72 ‘cuda 340 6-pack 4-speed
Spend a day in Heaven with family
To hear the voice
Of a long-lost love
To see her smile again
An answered prayer on stars above

I do believe the entirety of todays poetic offering to be entirely true .. but in actuality, ranked in reverse order .. exquisitely scripted sir and just the ticket .. N 😉👍
I do agree with you my brother from another mother, but I thought I'd save the best for last for effect. As always, Thanks my friend. 😁👍
A fine write AP.
Thanks Orchi. I see you've got your swooning under control. 😁
Lol, in dafter days I still swoon!
Well, good to see you're keeping with tradition. 😉👍
We all have those dreams of what we might be able to do AP, we can but hope.

I rather imagine the best of your bucket list is at your side this very moment. 🌹 Thanks Andy.
If one of my wishes ever came true in my very own bucket list it would be to see you in a long awaited reunion with your beloved Sharon, if only so she could see just how much she once many years ago touched a lads heart, and what that love has meant for more than 50 years, but what do I know, I'm just a romantic at heart. ❤️ A P sending you all my best wishes and my love for your future adventures ❤️
Well praise be to all those romantics at heart my dear Teddy. Thank you from my deepest of deeps (where Sharon resides). And like wise of your own bucket list my fine poetess friend. May all your wishes come true. 🌹
The best tends to be saved for last. But we each could amass quite a bit of to-do's along our life's travels.
Yes arqios, it does tend to culminate to a grand finish with a trail of to-dos to follow. Thank you, my friend,. 😉👍
So important to do those things while you can. I have missed a few but my bucket's pretty full. Great read
May you succeed in all your bucket list's endeavors' soren. Thanks for the read and comment. 😁
Such a moving piece, AP. Yeah, I think we all have lists like these. Really thought-provoking.
Well Tom, a recently added Bucket List item for me might just make it to reality. A few of my well known readers here have convinced me to publish my poetry for Sharon. I'm in the building stages of it now. Thanks for the read and comment. 😉👍
Oh wow! Congrats AP! Good for you.
