Stewart Watkins Poet Rhyme

Ride It

Up, up, arduous hills
Coasting down, feeling the thrills 

Through the forest and back to asphalt 
Navigating this earthly plane that god wrought

Boldy bending curves
Keeping it steady, no swerves

Coasting the electric light highways
Meticulously plodding the murky byways

Hanging on meandering roads
Just riding and shaking the load

Oh, rocky roads go bumpity bump
Holding fast through the thumps 

Swampy lands, please travel too
Be it night or day, see yourself come through

Don't hide it
Just ride it

Ride freely
Enjoy abundantly

Slowly in and through the rain, ride
The benevolent sun is shining on the otherside

Joseph P. DiMino July 6, 2020 at 8:22 AM For sure, be brave. We were not put on this earth to fail...but to overcome the Lesser Self. Great Road Trip. Reading this fine work, I felt that I was a young man again, motorcycle purring, leaning into the curves on mountain roads. Love it! Stewart Watkins July 6, 2020 at 9:37 AM Absolutely, Joe DiMino! Ride on!
