Open Road

Racing down the highway, enjoying the open road
 Off on another road trip to another zip code
 A stop for gas when needed
 Dashing off again, unimpeded

 Traveling through sunshine and rain
 Right turns then left again
 In and out of traffic in my jeep
 Passing other cars  until  my destination is reached

Joseph, tank you for passing our way with your open destination. I pictured you enjoying this ride in a tops down convertable car. ENJOYED!! PS- Why aren't you on my favorite poet list?? Your amazing, I know your talent's amazing.. I see you on the winning list, more times than I can count. Anyways, I am a fan. I just can't write many poems like other poets around here. I wish I could compose daily poems. haha enough venting.. Glad I had time to read some of your poems this morning... take care... Linda
