Day 48 to 50 Celebration


In closing---a brand new…beginning…

 

So? Y’all think the last fifty ride was a nifty treat?

Beginning now, I’ll be all-wild! Hold on to your seat

 

“Welcome aboard!” Don’t miss it standing on the platform-stay

Join my fun journey? Great! Just do not stand on the track-way

 

I sense the energy! Smell wild adventure! Taste love-life delight!

“He’s crazy! You know? He’ll dare-try anything that he just might”

 

That Rapscallion! Rebel! Rascal! Rogue! Debonair! Cavalier!

Courageous! Daring! Calls out evil twin sisters: Worry and Fear

 

“What” he simply can’t do? Such denial, he simply never knew

A kid of imagination-universal. Was it the baseball he threw?

 

Riding the range with a masked-Ranger and Tonto-intrepid

Soaring with Superman incarcerating evil criminals-imputed

 

Cool! In Levis, cowboy boots, western-style shirt, mirrored aviator glasses

Respectful and kind, even considerate; “That guy” takes no bully-bad sasses

 

And, so what of me, now? Just the very same as “then”. Me thinks

Nitroglycerin wild-unpredictable resulting explosive-Boom!-Hijinks

 

To a true-simple future (not once ever late):

 

On the ’morrow-dawn sensing I do arise “Good morning! World!”

A Rocky Mountain summit calls, or Ozarks, maybe Oregon-swirls

A dare-chance on a whim, golden aspen leaves corkscrew-down twirl

If the entire tribe will trek, I’m all-in, holding hands with my best girl

 

But, yonder, I spy a hill to climb; what adventure awaits on the other side?

Yellow warm sun devours a cold morning fog caressing an Oregon blue tide

A rhythmic white foam surf embraces soft beach-sand poetic, my spirit abides

Beyond a far blue horizon what wonder might find across white caps I slide?

 

Pray! Oh! Lord! This gypsy-man! Why would any sane entity ever follow?

He brought me here, willingly caught, to heaven, from a Maeystown hollow

And---That pretty much concisely says it all, My Love! Beauty Candy-Lady!

Just one more day after the last, let the good times roll…Yeah! Baby!

Amen!

 

Happy 50th Anniversary! Love, Just “Simple-me”

November 25, 2016---Carl
