From The House To The City.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

the best part
of my day is taking
my ride
to the office
where i pass
farms and
houses like pictures
of my postcard
past
sometimes to feel
what nature
is
i open the glass
window and
feel the winds
passing
by my face
and i see this world
full of cars and
people in the city
where i am met with
noise and
speed and i promise
myself
i cannot be sick
this time
for this world
needs
strong people
to change it
somehow
for the better.
