A Heroic Rispetto

A chapter in the book Family

Scooter

by Treischel


I rode my Baja scooter yesterday.
It had been sitting idle and ignored.
I felt just like a kid again at play,
delighted I had finally climbed aboard.

I felt the freedom of the open road,
enjoying sights that autumn had bestowed:
the sun on shoulders, wind to whip my hair,
and endless roads that lead to everywhere.

Haven't ridden this for about 2 years. Finally got it back on the road.

abab ccdd.
