Consumed

Fires in
Southern California

consumed

All that I could acquire

leaving nothing but ash.

After this experience I went on a cruise

Where I consumed too much food

too many activities consumed my time

Traffic consumed natural resources 

Vendors consumed my dollars.

The tour guides consumed with knowledge

History of their country, to give me a taste their culture

Since tourist's consumerism

Is the second most important resource for local business.

I was consumed me with a sense of wonder and a longing

To see more, to learn more, to sample foods and to meet people

And... to come again.

I was consumed with appreciation for the visit, grateful to be home

Consumed with fatigue and pleasant memories

Knowing that the Pyramids will never be consumed and will last forever.
