Road Trips

Sweet comfort memories of times gone by

of traveling with ya‘ll that make me cry

tears of soulful joy well up within

floating in my heart like a grin.

🏕 🏕 🏕

Lovely memories of vacation past

oh, if it could just be cast

in such a way to never end

camping & hiking to ascend.

🥾 🥾🥾

Campfires, sing-alongs and corny jokes

bring smiles when talking about the folks

of National Park visits or wilderness remote

create a lump in the throat.

🏔⛰🏔

Mountain Streams and a pristine lake

so beautiful for heaven’s sake

Remember, Uncle, the summit climb

When every rhythm had a rhyme.

🌲🌲🌲

So the reverie of things no more

as ya’ll exited life’s last door

brings me serenity nonetheless

mind-mapping road trips that still bless.
