Pocono Mountain Trip Today...

Poem Artwork

The road in the middle of the pic is Rt. 80 in Jersey,

Followed that home this evening, nice drive,

I find that long rides seem to help me feel alive,

From trips like these, good feelings I do derive...

 

The road on the right of the pic,

Is Rt. 611 in Pennsylvania, with the river in the middle,

On the way up I drove that road, once clipping a guard rail, oops,

Gotta watch when driving not to of my fingers twiddle...

 

The Appalachian trail does at the gap cross,

From PA to NJ across a short bridge,

Better than trying to ford the river,

Then up that small hill to the on top ridge...

 

I had a wonderful day, the drive mostly stress free,

Hours to get back, a half more than three,

And four to arrive, but the wait was worth it,

Cool temps & a great running car,

My day was quite well made, kinda like a shining star...

Always wanted to go to the Poke-you-[in the]-nose and see Mario at Nazareth. Sounds like a great Spring drive to relax your soul and feed your pen.

Uh, Oh - Old Brother Edvard heard you got me a present; I sure hope you got him something, too. And your trip to the Poconos painfully reminded me of my own, a Honeymoon trip there with my first wife many moons ago - she took everything I had!

Sounds like a great day. Lucky yer not Brit, clipping a guard rail on the drivers side might cost you a pinkey or two on a springtime handsfree drive. Patrick
