Let The Fantasy Begin

I've just returned from a seven day cruise aboard Allure Of The Seas...one of the largest cruise ships on the sea today...this poem is (I'm quite certain) the first of many inspired writes from this amazing journey......sigh.......


Poem Artwork

 

She’s dreamt of this moment, wishing time away
Through the long dark days of winter’s grasp
Her tired spirit has longed for the warmth of the sun!
Now, from the deck of the majestic Allure of the Seas
She gazes out over the glistening bay
Palm trees gently swaying on a fading horizon.
Soft Caribbean music floats into a clear blue sky
Caressing her senses before soaring heavenward.
A warm breeze brushes her cheek
And she closes her eyes for a moment, pinching her arm.
Yes! She is awake; it’s not a dream!
And as she sips the last remnants of her Mojito
A slow grin plays at the corners of her mouth.
Let the fantasy begin!

Nothing like a cruise
To chase away the blues
Especially when there's booze
Although high are the dues

I know because my bar tab on a cruise always makes the captain smile.

ABSOLUTELY! WHEN A DREAM BECOMES A REALITY...IT IS TIME TO REJOICE AND EMBRACE IT! WELL DONE WITH THE PHRASES AND IMAGERY THAT I ALWAYS APPRECIATE AND ENJOY YOU SHARING...THANKS. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH... JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Indeed! Cruises are a wonderful way to get rid of the Winter Blues. I've enjoyed every one I've been on, and yours sounds marvelous, too.

Reading this excellent poem of fantasy made me think of my first cruise aboard the USS Randolph in 1955. Good write Annabel.

Anna, I always loved the sensation of being at sea. Even in the military, the restful times for me were standing at the fantail gazing at churning wake. I certainly know and appreciate your feelings here, my good friend. However, coming home to a forecast of eight forthcoming inches of snow ain't so great.
Your friend, Mark

If Authors' Den turns green with corporate envy, we will know who's to blame. This is heavenly, Annabel!

Sounds like the fantasies were full throttle and out of this world. Loved this . . .

Wow- I'll be keeping an eye out here.
The closest I get is cruise control on my car.
