On the road of happy destiny
wearing joy faces with pizzazz
our hearts are intertwined
in sentiment’s design
Whether we march or skip or leap
makes naught a difference
for the eloquent camaraderie
a snappy rhythm keeps
Intended by a promise
to keep each other’s company
It’s so much fun going there
and traveling home again…
I used to zip around
in my little red cartoon car
Flinging all my passengers
as I flitted here and there
Flirting with exciting adventure
I gave my dreams a ride
Anticipation of sights unknown
would thrill up in my gut
Each new twist and turn
on the road of Life
Want a ride?
Beep, beep…!
Like jewels on velvet
the stars sparkled
I asked, “Can’t you do something
a little more exciting?”
Then, the biggest, brightest
flared, jumped, circled it’s neighbor
and flew out of view
Quicker than a hummingbird
as if to say, “I’m outta’ here!”
I stood there
mouth agape at the audacity
