The Open Road



Grass and trees roll past my sight,
as 18 wheels just roll on by.
Over the hill I see the lights,
they pierce the darkness in the night.
Dampness in the air I feel,
as drops of rain hit the windshield.
Listening to the "Eagles" play,
waiting for the break of day.
City after city lights,
oh they're such a pretty sight.
Oh there is no other way,
to see our country on display.
The rolling mountains, the roaring seas,
put my mind and soul to ease.
Thank you God for allowing me,
to gander upon our Awesome Country.

Haven't been ignoring you!
Just haven't had any poetry pop into my head.
(Well.. not any worth typing down.)

Good morning, Sam!!

Oh, nice graphic and poem today. I love the open roads!
My dearest friend Shirley was taking driving lessons to drive a semi. Our big dream was to travel across America in her rig and have a blast. Unfortunately the dream never materialized, she didn't pass the test and she developed cancer and died many years ago. We did however, chalk up many miles and states together on the road. I miss her a lot.

Well, hope the shop is shaping up!

Thanks for the tunes goodies all of them. :-)
