Wind

Friday, October 11, 2019

I wrote this poem while I was on my “Southern Tier” bicycle tour. I also kept a journal on the tour, you can read the journal by clicking on the Archive Link at the top of this page and selecting “Southern Tier 2019.”


Wind

The wind

  . . . blew

The temperature

  . . . cold

The road

  . . . narrow

My fingers

  . . . frozen

The bike

  . . . swerved

Again and

  . . . again

The shoulder

  . . . loomed

Blown off

  . . . mercilessly

The destination

  . . . far
