Country Biking
|
||
|
==============
|
||
|
|
||
|
A cool, fresh breeze,
|
||
|
Scented by green pine trees,
|
||
|
A warm sun on high
|
||
|
In a blue and white sky.
|
||
|
|
||
|
These are the things that make my day
|
||
|
As I bike merrily along my way,
|
||
|
Seeking the quiet rural by-wasy,
|
||
|
Avoiding the noisy congested highways.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There's a feeling of freedom beyond compare
|
||
|
When you're riding through the fresh country air,
|
||
|
Gliding along like a bird in flight
|
||
|
On a day that is pleasant, calm and bright.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When weather conditions are not the best,
|
||
|
Meet the challenge and take the test.
|
||
|
Afer facing the wind and cold,
|
||
|
You'll feel you've earned the Olympic gold.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Of course it helps when the roads are free
|
||
|
Of potholes, glass and other debris,
|
||
|
If dogs remain in their own domain
|
||
|
And drivers of cars are sober and sane.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In winter when the cold winds blow,
|
||
|
Warmer clothing is needed, you'll know,
|
||
|
But when roads are free of ice and snow,
|
||
|
Biking is still the way to go.
|
||
|
|
||
|
And when at last the spring breaks through,
|
||
|
Nature blossoms forth anew.
|
||
|
It's great to ride through April showers,
|
||
|
Knowing that soon they'll bring May flowers.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In summer when the days grow hot,
|
||
|
Morning and evening hours are not.
|
||
|
Then biking joy is at it's height
|
||
|
With waking birds and pale moonlight.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In autumn when the leaves change hue,
|
||
|
The glory of nature comes into view.
|
||
|
All your troubles will soon take flight
|
||
|
In the presence of such a wondrous sight.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If your spirits are low or your patience is tried,
|
||
|
Hop on your bike and go for a ride.
|
||
|
Greeting friends along the way
|
||
|
Will help to brighten your day.
|
||
|
|
||
|
And when you tire of jogging and hiking,
|
||
|
Try a little country biking.
|
||
|
Good for your body and good for your mind,
|
||
|
Recreation of the finest kind.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Other sports may have more clout,
|
||
|
But for me, without a doubt,
|
||
|
In winter, summer, spring or fall,
|
||
|
Country biking is best of all.
