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
