Chaps glimmering in light
wrapped around faded leather

hugs tightly old iron
while steely eyes admire

a scene
now seen,
in quiet admiration

is this contrast
of pale cradling black
in back

of a slow sun

rising

again riding the winds
of another highway day.

Teasingly Sol smiles
his blessings reign down

and, like shadows,
shimmering through trees


danseur d'aube
greets the day.


{revised 8-9-07, dedicated to RickZ
for the ride..}


If the sun never rises
I want to go down in flames
I want the last thing I hear
to be you whisperin' my name.
Each moment together
is time that we borrow
so hold me tight
and love me like
there's no tomorrow.
{Trace A}

nicely written....
a moment captured with more than just an image or images..there is the underlying tension of ecxitement..and of mystery... of admiration..and adventure..

well done ma'am.

Capt, it amazes me that you saw all of that in these few words, thank you. This is just an old recall re-written and posted for a friend who likes to tease me every chance he gets with the fact that he has had the opportunity to get out and ride often recently.  (and of course, I haven't       )  Thanks for stoppin in, sir.

Ah, an exciting, mysterious friend, taking
you for a dream ride....I see it, too.
Grinning at you...
