Default Why I Ride...A poem, by me

Why I Ride



I ride for simple pleasure
Now and then I do measure
As I ride I feel as though I have wings
Sometimes I float when I fly
Other times I zoom on by
Or take a leisurely stroll
As if I knew why

I get a feeling down deep inside
It's time to ride
It overwhelms me so
But alas I cannot decide
No matter though
I just get on my bike and ride

When I ride in the city
I dislike the dodging of cars
I'd rather ride my Harley to the desert
And gaze in wonder at all the stars

Riding is a personal plight
To be savored with all one's might
Riding is strong and full of life
When I ride my Harley there is no strife

Climbing a mountain is extreme
Mine is throwing a leg
Over my V-twin machine

I ride two up
Or I ride single
I ride to lunch
We break bread and mingle

I ride the two lane roads
Or I ride the road that bends
I ride the highways
And ones that have no ends

I ride to the mountains
I ride to the sea
I ride to the valleys and beyond
Why I ride
Is simply to be free

You got the goose pimples up on my arms so it must be good!
Now you just got to put it to music and you'll be partying like a rock star.
