"My Greatest Adventures in Life"
I turned up the Northern
Lights in Lapland
dancing under the Aurora
Borealis moon
Base jumped from the Eiffel Tower
in Paris
please remind me, am I still alive?
Solving the riddle of the Sphinx under starlit skies
hung-over by the affects of a Tequila Sunrise
I bathed in the Great Barrier Reef
swimming
courageously with sharks and stingrays
I took a stroll up Mount Everest
just because it was there
Showing some love for Anne Frank and Van Gogh
fired up the finest Dutchies in Amsterdam
Bungee jumped the Grand Canyon by helicopter
for agility, strength and endurance
running with some bulls in Pamplona
I walked into a big tomato fight in Valencia
As I made it across the Great Wall of China
wondering if Trump remembers history
Sailed the Seven Seas in a fishing boat
Today I am at peace with myself
I walked to the North Pole for goodness sake
so cold that I lost a digit
Caught a C-130 Cargo taxi back home
missing
my bed and breakfast in Connecticut
