we'll think of it as fun

it's packing

that's hard, the luggage

haul,

the train,

the tickets,

the flight

and jet lag.

the passport, the security

check points.

the new land

with a new language.

but we'll take pictures

when we arrive.

we'll lie

in the sun, we'll stretch out.

we'll drink.

we'll eat.

we'll make love

we'll stroll about,

and the end

despite all,

in the end,

we'll think of it

as fun.
