The Road Ahead Was Meandering Poem by Gert Strydom

The road ahead was meandering,
while I drove at a steady speed
taking the path as it did swing
with the wind rushing at my chest and feet,

the sun shining hot on my body
and the action of driving,
had a pleasure to it, while I felt free
a part of the motorcycle

which roared with power beneath me
and I was one with the black stretching road
while far in the distance I could see
a truck creeping along with its load

and I enjoyed speed and sheer tranquillity,
felt one with the passing nature
and the elements of the wind and sun had a kind of affinity
while the feeling was in perfection awesome and pure.
