Vacation Give Away
by A. Paige White
The best way to know
you are officially on vacation;
The voice of your GPS yawns
while giving you her usually energetic report.
You are still 2 1/2 hours from today's destination.

True poetry. And not a bit pathetic.
See Gentle Summer
for a look at a crab manor

| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 11/12/12 at 02:19 PM I love this short but sweet poem and ain't it the truth about GPS, whose voice though clearly female is all business and no play. if only her voice was made to sound like Marylin Monroe, I would her direction less seriously. In fact I wouldn't care where that voice led me as long as it got me there, where ever that is. The good news is that I didn't have to program a GPS to arrive at this ode, I just came by it naturally. |
