Our story - poem

If these feet could tell a story, a long one it would be,
With tales of climbing mountains, and paddling in the sea.

If these bags could tell a story, of far and distant lands,
Each month getting heavier - causing blisters on our hands!

If these clothes could tell a story, what a lot they'd have to say,
Worn layered up in snow and rain, discarded on a sunny day.

If this purse could tell a story, of foreign coins and bills,
From Wong to Dong to Dollars, exchanged in markets and in tills.

If this pen could tell a story, of all the postcards that we've sent,
Written from Korea to Cambodia, to friends in France and Kent.

If our iPods could tell a story, of worldwide communication,
Skyping, emails and blogging, from hostels to railway station.

If our blog could tell a story, oh wait, that story's been told,
I'm sure we'll look back fondly and share stories 'til we're old.

So it's the end for all our readers, we hope it's been worthwhile,
Thanks for coming on the journey - we hope we've made you smile!

Kirsty and Marie, July 2012.
