A Holiday for Batman...
Batman was born in BerkeleySome 14 years ago
And he adopted Kate
Just a few weeks later.

He enjoyed his 2nd-floor home
In leafy Berkeley
For three years, when
They moved to 3rd-floor brownstone
In urban Brooklyn…
Then onward to a cliff-top
New Jersey 20th floor aerie…
Overlooking another cityscape
And west to the hills.
He’s explored a few nearby parks
Riding in his carrier
Wearing a little harness
When he felt like
Venturing onto the actual
Earth and her grasses.
He has joined Kate and David
For this summer’s extended
Holiday near that Berkley beginning…
This time in a 1st-floor apartment
That seems to have been designed
As a photo setting just for him.
There are lots of leafy trees
And chatty passers-by…
And there’s even a fancy peacock,
Named Fancy,
That wanders around and swoops up trees!

Sooooo much for Batman to see.
Isn’t that what we all want
On our own holidays?
A change of scenery…
Some adventure…
And
A brand new
Point of view
On Life’s ever-expanding
Possibilities…
And it never hurts to have
A remarkable photo setting.

If this isn't nice, what is?
