I've been pondering my future
As we're sometimes apt to do,
Trying to reach conclusions
On the paths I might pursue!
I've wandered ancient castles filled
With France's storied past,
And stood atop the Tour Eiffel..
..The view was unsurpassed!
I've climbed the famous leaning tower,
..A trifle ill at ease!
And strolled Italian boulevards
Lined with spaghetti trees.
In retrospect, I can't complain,
Life has been good to me,
'Cause what you see is what you get..
There are no guarantees!
Canada is beautiful
But winters were a grind..
And in the end, I found a home
Where elements are kind.
Where Frangipani perfume fills
The tranquil tropic night
And views on golden beaches
Fill the viewer with delight!
Exotic birds flock to my door
In nature's bold array,
And all my cuddly furry friends
Surround me every day.
I've got it all, it seems to me
Here in my country nook..
And life might reach fulfillment...
...If I only had a cook!
No union members need apply..
The boss is reputable..
Fringe benefits are marginal,
But the pay's abominable!

A nice narrative poem of a cosmopolitan poem who has toured extensive and has seen some of the beautifully scenes of the world. An lovely piece of poetry. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
Who could resist this poem? Shared in the neighborhood, the next day, when taking out the mail surprised I'd be to see calmly waiting in line, an army of cooks. If you were near by, I surely had made some time to share back the delight I felt by reading this poem, thank you for share!
Some great lines flowing here. Your title grabbed me for sure. Welcome to PH. Thank you
