Carl Sandburg and Leather

Carl Sandburg and Leather

I, too, am an idealist.

Shining fast, feeling jazz.

Like sunlight on the blacktop

making shadows 

bursting colors

All heat and leather.

calling me to take that curve.

bending light.

I am free.

Together

Soon it will be too cold to ride,
but today we have the open road
Wild colorful Autumn
rising with the road

Together we explore.
