I've been dreaming about a holiday
for nigh on six years
yet I'll not be boarding a jet
until my bank account is out of arrears

before I go ahead with travel plans
I'll have to have at least three thousand bucks
for that amount of cash
will see me touring the lake's district ducks

one is saving and watching the pennies
that are placed in my money box
as this is the only conceivable way
that I'll catch sight of a Nepalese fox

how I'd like to taste some Swiss cheese
whilst observing an Alpine skier
yet my supply of coinage
lacks a generous demeanor

yet I envision so many destinations
but my shortage of cash
will most certainly see
my holiday dreams take a big splash
