Spring Staycation

Kissed by spray in coral seas, toes in sand warmed by the sun; job demands dispelled by breeze, stress by relaxation won. * It just keeps snowing.  I’m headed to ‘Tahiti’ for a little mental break.  Come along, would you?   (It’s incredibly cheap, I promise…)

Kissed by spray in coral seas,

toes in sand warmed by the sun;

job demands dispelled by breeze,

stress by relaxation won.

It just keeps snowing.  I’m headed to ‘Tahiti’ for a little mental break.  Come along, would you?   (It’s incredibly cheap, I promise…)

    Hey, I’m with you! How can I refuse such a warm invite? It’s Spring-ish over here but Winter temperatures so a little “Tahiti” would do wonders for my moral 🙂
    The picture is so, so beautiful, I love the coral color!

      Thanks Petro! (Shall I book the tickets, then?) 🙂

    And here I thot you were doing the old Corner Gas staycation. Have a good one.

    1. melodylowes

      Sorry – I can’t hear you very well over the crashing waves and seagulls – can I get back to you??

      1. lylekrahn

    Cheap is good–send me a post card, I’m not much for travel, or groups.

    1. melodylowes

      What’s that? Sorry, I can’t hear you over the roaring ocean waves…. 🙂

        Take off your sunglasses–(you’ll get it when you’re older).

    If you make a stop at O’Hare on your way- pick me up. I’m sure I can fit into a suitcase – just fine.
    Have a great trip 🙂

    1. melodylowes

      I can’t hear you very well over these waves – and I need another layer of sunscreen – can you reach my back for me?? 🙂

    Would love to go to Tahiti, too, Melody, and your poem and photo are lovely! 🙂

    1. melodylowes

      Come along! It costs nothing but a drain on your imagination! 🙂

      1. lscotthoughts

        Well, in that case…
        🙂

    Thank you for taking us away! The photo is so beautiful!

      My heart is aching for the real thing, now. Temps dropping overnight to -17C – Brrr!

    Love this – brings thoughts of spring!

      Thank you! If it can’t be spring outside yet, it might as well be spring inside! 🙂
