I was told that this was bound to happen
There are two kinds of people who ride motorcycles
Those that have been down
and those that are going down
Well, last week was my turn
I suppose being hit from behind five years ago
Didn't count

Stopped, waiting to feed into traffic
Driver not paying attention
WHAM! and over I went
It was my turn I suppose
Well, I have been down

But I got up
and limped the huge bike home
That was perhaps most important
and also another part of motorcycle creed
Get back on the horse asap
The bike is now in the shop
and I have been in and out of the doc's office
An unpleasant reminder
of riding's reality

Johnn, I am so moved by this inspired poem this morning.
You need to publish that. It speaks straight to the heart.

Jaycee, that cat is gorgeous! We used to have one that looked just like that! I believe they are Burmans! Our Nutmeg died after giving birth to a beautiful litter of mix n match kitties! We still have her “ baby” who now is 14years old. Forest is jet black and copper, absolutely gorgeous!

I agree with you. Johnn's poem is wonderful.
Wishing you a blessed Lord's Day

Hope you weren’t seriously injured, Starfire! I’m so sorry about your accident.

One of my favorite bumper stickers is this:

“You will never see a motorcycle outside a Psychiatrist’s office!”

[MEG33]

“You will never see a motorcycle outside a Psychiatrist’s office!”
Love it!

Amazing Grace

by John Newton

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, .
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!

Dear God, who suffered
torment, agony and death upon the Cross
to free our souls from the chains of iniquity;
protect and defend our troops. Guide them in
the performance of their duties. Strengthen
them to endure hardship, danger and depri-
vation in Your service. Let their efforts free
the people of Iraq and Afghanistan from the
chains of terror and slavery, foster a lasting
peace in the region, and bring all to a greater
share in Your Mercy.
Amen.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

THE NAVY HYMN

Eternal Father, Strong to Save

The Marine Corps Verse:

Eternal Father, grant we pray
To all Marines both night and day,
The Courage, Honor, Strength and Skill
Their Land to serve, Thy Law Fulfill.
Be Thou the Shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps!

This is the day which the LORD hath made;
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalms 118:24(KJV)

Have a Blessed Lord’s Day!

Lamh Foistenach Abu!
