FULL BLAST (FOR KEITH, MAY YOU STILL BE RIDING THE NIGHT WIND

FULL BLAST

I will never forget the

night we met

The peacock feather

stuck in your

cowboy hat

It swept the floor

to the heels

of the

gator boots

you wore

boots that

suited you

so well

I'm so glad

I did not

make a run

for the

door

You asked me to dance

and when I declined

You told me you

had moves that

would

make mine shine

You asked me if

I would care to go

for a spin just up the road

to this out of the way den

When we got to your car

and I'm being generous there

I was a little concerned

when you had no reverse

You stuck your foot out

and pushed

your car back,

out of your parking spot

I was young,

wild and free

and did not become

alarmed until you

explained to me

about your brakes!

Somehow

by God's sweet grace

I'm sure

We made it to Orla Vista

and Orange Counties

most notorious bar

I've got to pause here

as the tears stream

down my face

Because I am reminded

I love you still

today

I will never forget

or regret

one moment of our

time together

the love and laughter we shared

*

Just the other day

I saw a young man

trying to impress

he popped a wheelie

out in

the grass

*

All I could think

of to say

was

*

I'm not impressed

*

For you see

*

I have rode the

night sky

Tasted the wind

on the back

of a bike

doing 110

*

Front wheel held high

in the air

tearing down the

highway

screaming

in joy and fear

*

Clinging to the back

of a man

running

*

Full Blast!

*

All my love still

Keith

No regrets!

*

Just memories of

a man

I could never resist

and I will neverforget

*

A man who knew

how to live, laugh

and most of all

Love,

*
*

Full Blast

*

May you still be riding the night wind!

SOMEDAY

This has been running around my brain

since I learned last year

that the someday I hoped for

would never be here.

I did not want to face the pain,

But I have no regrets

about the choices I made.

Only sadness for the somedays

we will never have

and joy for the time we spent.

I chose to write this today

for anyone out there

waiting

for their somedays,

that may never come!

To ask them, when it's to late

and your somedays

have all come and gone,

will you be able to look back

with no regrets

at the choices you made?

For the somedays you put off,

for the time never spent?

Or, will you look back only to find,

that the choices you made,

the time you spent was just to

survive and you never learned to live?
