Oregon-homesick!? Oh! Yeah! Amen! (To continue Marlene's Birthday! Enjoy!

 Comfortable  Convertible Cruising
 
Yeah! I know it’s two a.m. and we ought to be in a dream
Bright full moon beckons, we can get chocolate ice-cream
 
White ragtop down, the red hot chariot is rolling
Pacific blue waves reflect the alabaster’s strolling
 
North on route 101 from our secret secluded cove
Pine-scented wind enjoyed as by the sea we rove
 
Lincoln City-beach deserted while the colorful kites slumber
Yonder-east across Coast Range makes one feel more humbler
 
Onward shading north toward Portland-town way
The Interstate to 405 for some fun-time circle-play
 
Flying pre-dawn wild times takes some special nerves
Not too carefully traverse, those tight Terwilliger curves
 
Ford-clear Willamette River flows to the mighty-Columbia
That red Mustang a-galloping with co-pilot Candice Le-ah
 
Ore’ the lane-lined bridges to view seductive city poses
Intoxicating fragrance envelopes this red City-of-the-Roses
 
Glass towers blush crimson on impressive modern skyline
West, the Pittock-mansion stands-proud in Old Growth-pine
 
’Round the town to view this city awesome fair
Sellwood-antiques to Clackamas Towne Square
 
Seems the faster we go, the better it looks
A cop wrote my name in one of his books
 
To properly celebrate that authority noticed my-sin
I kicked ’er in the fast lane, flew-lightning ’round again
 
My attitude displays not pernicious evil-malevolence
To: Faith! Family! Freedom! I offer humble-reverence
 
Because---That “Trinity”-sacred may just be all there really---is
In one eternal instant, the only counted judgment will be…His!
 
Amen!
