Luxury Cruise

"Goodbye Tom~so long Sally"

The final shake of hands

I am on the ship and seaward bound

And off to foreign lands

A clang of bells~ the hooter blasts

The liner leaves the dock

And as Southampton lies astern

First stop~Gibraltar rock

Through seas of blue and surging foam

And glorious sandy bays

The leafy palms~ the brillant skies

Would stay with me always.

A new horizon every day

Of costumes,customs and places

Moslem temples~Buddhist shrines

Strange lands and different faces

The memories of camel rides

Rickshaws and cable cars

Countless tours at ports of call

And visits to bazaars

To cruise the world in luxury

Scorning the expense

Another day to savour

Some new experience.

The thrill~the pleasure of it!

Alas! was not for me

For I had dreamt it from a book
