The Ride
the ride
the world waited
for me to catch up
I did
found it moved much too slow
I whirled twirled laughed and danced
much too fast
reluctantly slowed became aware
found the precise speed
in tune in synch in love
harmony marriage family friends
so vivid so vague
the world now too fast
watching it orbit leaving me behind
but oh what a ride
