The Ride

The Ride

Essence plays upon the earth
it weaves and dives the peaks with grace
a thrilling ride of sturm und drang
with hush of wind upon the face.

Every climb, a mountain conquered
and every fall the ride does make
a gift of freedom and a choice
compiles a lifetime in its wake.

Memories made are set to film
to play in hind sight on the train
like shooting stars, they come to pass
endearing sessions in their refrain.

Glee and joy, inseparable twins
beam from eyes wide open and tall
these moments made from all we touch
long deep breaths to catch them all.

To look ahead when mind is full,
when time and breathing are then short
we wish to live it once again
this ride and gift we do exhort.

Rebirth in essence on the earth,
to weave and dive the peaks with grace
relive the ride of sturm und drang
with hush of wind upon our face.
