Goélette (2023) Original Oil Painting by Isabel Mahe

. . .

Here we are, quiet and content,
within our more or less sheltered little world.

But sometimes, we wouldn't mind...
A little adventure!

To be swept away by a band of sea raiders,
on a non-stop voyage to the farthest reaches of the oceans.

To be carried off by a team of researchers,
like a rare pearl,
in search of strange crustaceans yet unknown.

For a few pirates to come ashore,
kidnap us,
drag us aboard their ship,
against our will,
on a fabulous odyssey,
in search of a treasure abandoned
by a gang of buccaneers from the last century.

After all, there's nothing wrong with having an imagination.
It costs nothing and requires no luggage.
