White plume of airplane
Rising high in a blue sky
Great day to travel
I have known such days
Packed with joyful adventure
Cup filled to the brim
Now I sip coffee
Watching flights from my window
Filled with gratitude

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

That ol’ traveller itch, has to be scratched 🙂
You bet. In April I’m going to my timeshare in Mexico with my sister and her husband. They plan to do touristy things every day while I stay home in the shade by the pool and read.
Sounds brilliant, take lots of books. I’m away to my daughter in W Australia in Jan, a month in the sun☀️
Your January visit to your daughter sounds lovely. Happy travels.
I’m with you, watching, with gratitude. I’m not a great traveler
For about twenty years I went to lots of road-less-traveled places. My last such trip was to Cuba in 2012. Now I stay close to home and find new things I never noticed or appreciated before. I watch.
Simply beautiful, Ina
Thank you, Dale.
This is so joyful Ina, it makes me feel as though I’m expanding into the world.
Thank you, Andrea. What a wonderful comment. I cherish it.
Daily I travel
In my mind’s eyes I relish
Beautiful life 🙂

Yes, we have much in life to be grateful for – because our cup is always half full or more.
Peace,
Eric
Yes, travel is not confined to boarding an airplane. My cup has a steady balance to it these days, some of my best ever..
Ina 🙂
Love it!
Thank you.
The last stanza is wonderful xo
Thanks, dear Christy.
The past and the present are beautiful and that is what I feel from this lovely piece. Everything has its time and place and gratitude should be given. Lovely
Thanks for your thoughtful comment, Lynn. ❤
Many benefits of aging are obliquely referenced here, at least in my mind. Clearly you are making the most of them!
Yes, thanks for seeing beyond my words.
