Show Me the Place, 103


“Show me the place.”
Duke Senior in As You Like It (2.1)

Finis

And so another journey ends—
Begun so long ago—
These visits to the sites I’ve loved
That still in memory glow.

So many of those journeys were
Like gold to Joyce and me
As we drove all across this land—
From sea to shining sea.

Those alabaster cities—yes.
Those amber waves of grain.
I hope those lines speak for themselves—
I don’t need to explain.

And soon we will be off again—
Another kind of trip.
I hope you’ll join me on that jaunt—
I love this partnership.
