Easy Rider

wistful dreams recalled

of daring easy riders

conjuring desire

I actually was a too young to have any thoughts about Easy Rider when it first came out but as a teenage I became obsessed with guys on motorcycles. And Peter Fonda on a bike-woo hoo! Probably a good thing I didn’t see the movie until years later (many years–I think I was in my 40s). Not sure if seeing the movie as a teen would have wrecked my obsession or not 😉 but I would have hated to miss out on that Fonda crush.

So thanks for the memories Ronovan Writes

The Rain

drops float in the air

a prism of light and color

held in a moment

before they swim to the earth

bathing the colors of spring

red purple and yellow tulip fields

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

Bearing Witness to the Folly of Man

we speed to the end

unaware of the magic

held in the moment  

afterglow avian backlit birds

Thanks for the inspiration to Linda and her JusJoJan challenges!

And to No Facilities for the word prompt. I took some liberties and used “testify” as an idea (bearing witness) not the actual word.

Thanks also to Ronovan Writes for the words magic and man, which I morphed in to “we” (based on the assumption that man = human = we) because it sounded / felt like the right word.
