I’ve Been Riding by K. Peddlar Bridges aka The Roadpoet, Laconia Motorcycle Week® Poet Laureate & Historian.
I’ve been riding and writing
Since who knows when
My hair was dark and thick
And my beard was light and thin.
And now I’m old – gristle’d, grizzled and gray
So different from that first riding day
And now it’s not about
Where I want to go that I dream
It’smoreabout ...

I’m thinking about
Where it is that I’ve been
But still the miles
and the dreams roll on
And I’ll keep rolling and dreaming
‘Till all my hair and tire tread is gone.
And when it comes my time
For me to leave for that ... other side
I think I’ll take my Bike with me for the ride.
