*Laurie Kolp Poetry*

Around the World
by Laurie Kolp

I traveled the oceans far and wide
from sea to shining sea,
swam with the dolphins
surfed big waves
lolled in the sun happily.
I climbed mountains high
in cold and rain
from plateau to snow-capped peak,
skiied up and down
through twists and turns
each experience, bold and unique.
You, too, can journey
this big wide world;
see creatures and vista's nooks,
just find a spot
to relax awhile
and get lost in your favorite book.
