Buena cinco de maya a todos
One poem from early this morning, then some older stuff I found on a piece of paper I want to toss.

Boise
Near two in the morning
At Denny's in Boise
The drive from Brigham City
Scenic with beauty
As mountains gave way
To green rolling hills
Grasshoppers left yellow
All over the Century
Not far was that drive
In that once white Buick
Three hundred miles quick
Though in centuries past
They thought a month fast
Maybe less not by much
Now again a short note
About the ride
The day before
On the highway
called I-15
It lies west of the Wasatch
Snow capped peaks all the way
Nearing Provo a change
White all to near bottom
Seen first in the distance
And then it got better
Well what was seen on the fifteen
Is but past save in photos
Pictures and images
And memories
And now the pancakes and bacon
Sit in stomach quite heavy
Stick to the ribs stuff and tasty
And I get sleepy
Good mornin'

Iron
Left St George at eight a m
Headed north for cooler weather
St George where the iron
men and women gathered
To test themselves
against themselves
Good luck to all that join 'em
Nearing Cedar City now
Been uphill all the way
A rest stop on the I-15
Barely worth the stop
Since now I cannot go
But on the road I try
Well why?
Because you never know
Already cooler No regrets
Low pressure tire light came on
And I am all alone
Pulled over checked reset
Next tire store pulled in
They let air out gassed up and gone
When the Wassatch came in sight
All was different white and bright

Bugs
And now the biting bugs are born
I find again I have a purpose
If only to provide food
For them delicious
Its blood they want and blood I have
And a day it is for its donation
Easter holy for all Christian
The clouds today are different
Spring air perhaps
Perhaps heaven
Having Celebration
