Thanks to you all - glad you liked!
This was one of those occasions when you don't know how it's going to end until you get there. In retrospect I would make a few changes. The first two journeys sound fairly environmentally-friendly - i.e. they are not aeroplane journeys - but the end refers to climate change, or maybe it's just the disappearance of hope, of love rather than a ban on holiday travel. But if I could write it again I would make the carbon foot print idea a bit stronger in the earlier stages. But I can't rewrite, unless i rewrite on the same day, and it's too late for that now! The sound and style of it was probably inspired by me having listened to some folk music the night before!

You deserve to follow your heart--shall we pray that U&LadyofYour Heart go

away a-traveling? (Your music came forth and took away the sonnet on another celestial travel) shalom and GodMorning...remember the Sabbath and Keep it Holy my friends. I ask this in the Precious Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

That was weird man.
But good weird. First, all the sudden cheese? Then the trick ending. Did you borrow inspiration for that? Just get that feeling. i mean, i borrow, not a lot, but it's not a bad thing. um, shut up pat, um, ok...

The repetition made such beautiful effect, and so was the let down in the
end. Marvellously said, Tony.

Antonio-yo-yo - You ARE going on holiday, yes? This was lovely.
I really enjoyed the repeating of the My Love part.  Made me smile.  Enjoy your day!
