My Travels
My travels start
Right here
Deep in my mind,
My travels take me just where
I please, I don’t have
To leave my warm room,
My travels start,
Sixteen, sun
Beating down,
Sinatra’s crooning Jobim,
And I’m just dreaming of my
Great romance to come,
I don’t need a little ticket,
Tells me I can take the train,
I don't even to risk it,
There’s no blistering sun,
Or driving rain,
And it’s here that I remain.

Yes, I am, Teddy...not a great move...
It's a song lyric, dating from 2003, it should have stayed that way!

Truly, it's fine...
Just road testing my last few pieces here to find out what to keep and what to discard, then I will have run out, and will make myself scarce.

Maybe...
I'll think about it.
