Pedal or Coast?

HEAD DOODLING BACK


I have come to a place 
far from where I had been

a very long journey:  
there to here – 
and between

and although  
it has been 
a wild ride – even so,

there is something, I reckon  
I never will know . . . for

sometimes I pedaled; 
and sometimes I’d coast

but I still couldn’t tell you –
which one . . . I like most.


Note:

Sherry Blue Sky (STARDREAMING with Sherry Blue Sky) of Poets United - A Community for Poets who Blog -  recently interviewed me for the Blog of the Week feature and that interview appears today at Poets United - Blog of the Week ~ Wendy Bourke.  Thanks for this, Sherry.

  1. Ha... I think you need a little bit of both... sometimes it's uphill after all... but the downhill can be a thrill too...
