Another Ride of Yonder
by Mitchell Sprinsky on Jul.18, 2010, under Uncategorized
Sun baked dirt road starts your climb.
Merely, a means to the end or is it the beginning?
Journey on my friend. Push your bike up the two miles that only a mountain goat would find soothing.
Snaking ribbon of brown amongst a canopy of green.
A deceiving notion of gentle rolling bliss, but do not be deceived. You will climb. No, you will grunt and moan. Each pedal stroke beckons the virtue of physical will. Was it worth it?
Like minded souls of Summer line up for their show. Entertainers of the great outdoors. Who’s to tell if there is a reward? That ponder is an easy one to decipher.
Away! Your journey is just beginning.
It’s time to reap your reward. You’ve earned it. It’s a show for us. Your reaction is the writing of a thousand words. We see it.
We feel it.
You roll on. Your not expending anymore energy. You’ll need what you have left because nature’s paintbrush will take away every last breath. The climb seems easy now, doesn’t it? Climb? What climb?
You don’t let your guard down. It’s a fast paced rock fest that can take you out in a moments notice. You know this. One more shot, put that camera away, and concentrate.
Another year goes by and another ride of yonder.
