[bodytext] => Headed North on the drive as I approach the 35 I tell you it's not the age it's the miles I've been on the up and on the down, I've been all around I tell you it's not the age it's the miles A year and 9 in the northeast trying to tame winter's beast And only 5 days in my summer's bed Oh the stories that can be told In this two door wheels tread From Amarrillo to Winnepeg Sleeping on egg crates, but nowhere to put my head A twenty four hour cruise So much time for Jason, Jimmy, Hank, and the blues Headed North on the drive as I approach the 35 I tell you it's not the age it's the miles I've been on the up and on the down, I've been all around I tell you it's not the age it's the miles I've gotten checks from UPS and Williams Ski and Patio But for all their dollars they don't know April 1 rolls around and I get itchin To get back on the road From first place to last The miles come and they pass But I give thanks overall To that little white ball Headed North on the drive as I approach the 35 I tell you it's not the age it's the miles I've been on the up and on the down, I've been all around I tell you it's not the age it's the miles From Mississippi to the Great Lakes, to the border of Laredo From feet on snow to the land of Lemurs And that toothless bartender at the Royal You can bet your ass I've seen her Headed North on the drive as I approach the 35 I tell you it's not the age it's the miles I've been on the up and on the down, I've been all around I tell you it's not the age it's the miles [comments] => 2 [counter] => 156 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Beyfoxman5 [notes] => Edited for spelling as requested ~ Moderator_18 July 12, 2015 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
