Reading

I am 72
Lecturing
On a cruise
Ship in the Baltic
Off Denmark in the
Skagerrak in northern
Waters sitting in the Crows
Nest reading my book when
My sister softly calls my name
And I look up over my glasses
Perched on my nose and she
Snaps my photo deep into
Contemplative thoughts
But smiling to see her
Before me on this
Voyage good
Company
For me
And
Happy to
Be not alone.
