 Dream Vacation~~~ Our family car broke down in a little tourist town It was going to take at least a week to fix ~ The only place to stay within fifty miles they say A hotel that overlooked a 'magic ocean' ~ The meals an expensive treat but a family has to eat and drinks were priced to really set you back ~ The managers brother Bill owned the repair shop down the hill and the bill was added with our room's expenses ~ Now our credit card's at the max our cash barely paid the tax and our savings account has nearly been depleted ~ As we checked our room once more there was a sign upon the door ' Stop have you left anything ! ' it said ~ Then from my marker came graffiti underneath and not so sweetly it said ' Stop have you anything left ! ' ~~~ I'm not ugly! I'm just visually challenged! |

AH, Vacation, A Wonderful expectation, But we're oft' not prepared, For how the vacation has fared! Thanks for sharing your passionate journey! Dennis :^) Poetry is the expression of thoughts which awake the higher and nobler emotions, or their opposites, with words arranged to some accepted convention.........or maybe not! Dennis :^) |

LMBO!!!! That was a heck of a turn this one took. It`s nice to see that you can take your "Dream Vacation" and turn it into something to make other`s laugh. This is GREAT piece Rex One that I`ll be coming back to when ever I need a laugh. Thank You |

Sometimes when life gives you lemons, you just have to make lemonaide. I'm sure you can survive anywhere, vacation or not, with your sense of humor. Loved this! |

You have a wonderful sense of humor, it's very delightful to read your poetry, and know I've gotten some therapy with it. |

RufffRyder ... laughter rules ... sorrow drools ... I try not to let sorrow have the upper hand Mistikman ... Yall come back now ... Hear? Marge ... Graffiti can be fun ... as long as we don't get carried away with it Martie ... I like lemonade ... used to sell it when I was a kid ... 'last summer' Lost dreamer ... you snuck in on me while I wasn't looking ... Glad I can help brighten your day ... Thats the reason I love to write [This message has been edited by Rex Allen McCoy (edited 03-01-2000).] |
