March 1: Right here in Vietnam ...


“Please buy something from my shop”, the invitations never stop, we’ve walked and walked until we drop, today in Vietnam
“Mister please, won’t you just look”, he tried to land me with a hook, clothes, shoes, maybe a book, still here in Vietnam
Every shop seems like the same, their wares and goods a numbers game, if I don’t buy it’s me they blame, life's tough in Vietnam
We’ve had such a terrific day, we walked around every which way, every shop the same display, all day in Vietnam

We’ve seen so many wonderful sights, the heated days, the coolish nights, the river's shore, the morning's lights, here in Vietnam
Tomorrow is another day, we’ll get up early, and make our way, to see another unique display, on show in Vietnam
On Monday we will leave this place, we’ll take a flight up into space, north to Hanoi we will embrace, still here in Vietnam
The on a cruise to Halong Bay, overnight and the next day, in a flash hotel, we will stay, right here in Vietnam

Then home to Sydney we will return, our holiday a past concern, another soon we both do yearn, but not to Vietnam
