Challenged to a ‘bucket list’
Thought, “that’s a good idea”
So here’s a little list of mine
Repeated for you here
In no particular order
these are my top ten things
that I would really love to do
before I get my angel wings
Pompeii and the Parthenon
I have already seen
Both were on my bucket list
But to both I have now been
France’s Languedoc region fascinates
It’s history calls to me
Exploring caves and castles
I’ve long wanted for to see
Further distant are the pyramids
The great wall of China too
More history of the ancient kind
Both I’ve longed to do
I’d like to live somewhere really hot
A Greek island for a while
For the sunshine is a friend of mine
And always brings a smile
I want to see each of my four children
As successful as can be
With lives full of enrichment
Born from pure vitality
And a published collection of my verse
Would be absolutely great
For when done I could recite it
As I’ve started to of late
I’d love an AC Cobra, polished chrome
And cobalt blue
It’s always been my dream car
A thoroughbred and British too
Then at two thousand seven hundred
and ninety five long miles
Walking the England Coastal path
would take me quite a while
But I think I’ll have time to fit it in
With all the other things
That feature in this list of mine
Before I see those angel wings

Congratulations on hitting at least the first two items on the list! That’s a well done, in and of itself!

Thanks. And they were spectacular ones to hit in every way. Would love to go back to both, but to think I’ve actually been there is more than enough in itself; memory is a precious commodity!
