More poems

Another poem for your enjoyment! 

And we're off to the land of Burma
Telling our families not to squirma
I'll be fine I'm with Sasha and Megan
Seeing temples in the city of Bagan
We hope to travel by the sea
And catch some rays in Ngapali
Then let's travel to the lake of Inle
Where a floating market lies, what?! that's cray!
Then off to Mandalay we'll go
You should read the poem sent to us by Grandpa Joe
Two weeks remain between adventure and us
36 hours of flying and stops plus a 4 hour bus
And from now til our arrival time will surely slow
Because most of all I can't wait to reunite with Rose!


Will I see all these places? I COULDN'T TELL YA! hopefully you and I will find out soon enough. Also, I have to give my dad a little credit for the first rhyme...but that's what us Fergusons do...tell the same stories/rhymes over and over again...we only have a couple. ;)

Here's to coming back with a few new stories and rhymes!

poem from Grandpa Joe:
On the road to Mandalay,
Where the old Flotilla lay,
With our sick beneath the awnings when we went to Mandalay!
On the road to Mandalay,
Where the flyin' fishes play,
An' the dawn comes up like thunder outer China
'crost the Bay!
