Poem: Today I'd Like To Ride

...a little poem to Charles- my riding partner! :)






Today I’d Like To Ride


Today I’d like to ride,
into the cooling breeze.
What do you say, dear,
shall we take a spin?

If needed we can bundle,
into our caps and coats.
With helmets on,
we’ll let the fun begin!

We’ll let our moods determine
which way we end up going.
It matters little
where the roads may end.

With weather so enticing,
and gentle breezes blowing,
we’ll just embrace
what lies beyond the bend!

Late - we’ll seek the sunset,
to capture - if we can -
those perfect hues
that thrill me to the core.

And when the night is casting
deep shadows on the land-
we’ll head for home,
as all the times before.
