The hop on and hop off bus
landed me in a stress
being a new way to see the city
never an invasive way to do so-a real pity.
The hop on at first loop
was exciting in the hoop
as the stops got ahead
was not so interesting in all stead.
The Big Bus, red, blue and yellow
went around Washington with a bellow
the popular ones with the expensive fee
certainly, not the only way to see.
I hopped on and off in intervals
saw through the place at levels
this Museum for a few second
that monument in a split second.
Got on the blue and then the red
knowing not where they led
Yet I, without any disbelief
saw the capital with no relief.
Walked I up and down the city
went around the White House in gaiety
did not perceive anything in intense
Well! my sojourn ended up in nonsense.
I propose not this way of sight-seeing
as it is a disproportionate indulging
the method to see is one by one
that would be the best way in the run.
I reconciled myself as having seen the most
said to me demurely that I have lost
almost nothing in the means I choose
thus, I remain so all through the course.
