Let’s Walk for a While

A black leather cap, a song, and a smile

Have you got a sec? Let’s walk for a while.

I noticed your ride, we could drive for a bit

Does it come with an engine, that toy Honda Fit?

We could take my truck, power over each hill

Ride shotgun, my son, and prepare for a thrill.

A spoiler of Bethy, I oft hear the charge

I’m guilty, I admit, of this claim, by and large.

A worker, my role, in this beehive called life

Protecting my queen, my soulmate, my wife.

Game nights and movies, our sojourns the best

Savannah was lovely, that week in Key West!

Let’s keep ‘em low key, these Mallory Square walks

Don’t mind the rainbows, on my compression socks.

High winds in Wyoming, ripped your awning away

Take the next exit, Steve, by the gas pumps we’ll stay.

Keep calm, don’t panic, I’ll plan our escape

I’ve got an idea, please pass the duct tape.

Along the way, I’ll explain what we see

All things tractors and silos, plus bad jokes for free.

No matter the day, morning, noon, or night

A good time for ice cream, two scoops, about right.

A tough season, you say, I’ve been through a few

Try as I might, not all harvests come through.

Rolled a rig, lost a home, life comes at you fast

So, draw near to your Lord, the only thing that will last.

Time for worship and praise, sing out, this my plea

Grab a book, keep pace, and follow my lead…

Oh, praise His name, He is my King,

A wonderful song, He is to me!

A black leather cap, a song, and a smile

I hope you were listening, as we walked for a while.

But our time now is up, we’re at journey’s end

Keep smiling, my friend, as I’ll see you again!
