Ode to Cousin Jack and Red[/b]


Here’s to Cousin Jack and Red
With eyes of an eagle inside of her head
She’s helping Jack steer
Clear of those deer
Their love of the road is inbred

Two souls on the road, carrying a load
Of Moose Jaw Willies, over road that is hilly
Love of life rolls them on,
As we follow along
Through stories of wet,
And people they met
And even ones that are silly

Gold-wing-facts brought us together
So ride on Cousin Jack,
And when you and Red get back
We’ll thank you for reports
Of the “Cousin Jack” sort
And you know that each one we will treasure.

Ode to Wet and Bedraggled



Here they come!

Ol' Wet and Bedraggled.....

Wondering what in the hell

they are doing way out here......



"Long way to go for a car,"

Wet mutters wetly,

"Oh, cheer up, Honey,

Bedraggled replies sweetly.....



"Look at all the nice people

we get to meet," she says gently.....

"Should send them a damn video,"

Wet mutters darkly.....



But then the sun comes out,

and I get to pitch the stupid tent,

and Gina shows up,

dark eyes full of mirth and laughter and courage....



And big Mike, arms like telephone poles,

a hard-hearted man who will ride 750 miles

to get a friend out of trouble.... my kind of guy...

"See, Honey," Bedraggled whispers into my ear....



And again, I thank God for allowing me to ride,

with my life-partner,

and good friends......

even people that compose poems

that even rhyme!



Life is good, even when wet!
