Perambulate … Summer

Today’s word is “perambulate” … to walk or travel about; stroll. (Dictionary.com)

Summer
The people are perambulating,
All the country round and round,
They are sick and tired of waiting,
Now there are treasures to be found.

In the East the lobsters wait,
For seafood foodie’s endless feasts,
Ancient monuments still gleam,
Waiting for a glance, at least.

The West holds giant mountains high,
Pine trees covering rocky rills,
They reach down to the frothy ocean,
With creatures and amazements filled.

In the South through heat and haze,
Mosses hang from cypress trees,
Gators lurk and porpoise play,
You can watch them all for free.

The North is filled with wonders,
Glaciers calve and wild whales breach,
Everything is magical,
Nothing there is out of reach.
