Highway

Sonorous Poetry

A place to go from,

A place to be,

A place to pass,

A way to flee,

A river coasting houses,

A stream of wheeling boats,

A death bed to many,

And a life-line to most.

 

Half a world,

Intertwined by pavement, paint, and peat,

Gears and pistons,

Heaving metal,

Wayward,

A'fore the blazing highway heat,

Yesterday, today, and as long as people seek

    I love this work! The imagery is so vivid, the whole time I was reading, my mind was painting a picture of a cracked and dusty highway, worn from the years of travelers going from one place to another.

      Aww thanks, I was inspired by a lonely dusty highway. You can't tell the second stanza is an acronym on here though....
