Road Trip Conclusions

Lorna



We took a trip to see some land

Thought that we might buy some

The price was right 

Our purses small

And so we set off hopeful

 

But our hearts sank

As we drive through

A landscape flat and empty

The day was long I composed this song

As we were driving homeward

 

We'd rather be home than anywhere

But

We'd rather be anywhere 

Than Delaware

    Lorna,
    Been there, done that,
    and I too am glad to be
    anywhere but Delaware!

    The above words are not mine! They are from a friend who was born in Deleware and left as soon as she could!

    A great and honest write!
    Thank you for taking me to
    Phil Collins...one of my favorites!

    And she left "Home of Tax Free Shopping" - ha ha Laura.... I thought maybe it was just us........

    There are some places from where you cannot get home quick enough.

    That is funny. All they have going for them is the autumn leaves. No that is not nice. I like to see almost every place once, and I have never personally been there. Still, that is a good piece.
    Keep writing.
    Persistence is key

    Don't know Delaware but I do recognise the sentiments - enjoyable write Lorna. And yes I'm back.

      Hurrah you're back! Good time had by all? You can safely remove Delaware from your Bucket List.........
