"Highway Sunrise"

By Mike Defendant 

 

Highway sunrise, 

forward through pink skies. 

A burning star with blinding rays to warm our spirits, guide our ways. 

Travel on my weary friend.

I salute you with this pen. 

You chose to leave this town, you chose to leave it fast.

Now you watch dotted lines fading to the past. 

Take a break to see the world, take a break to rest.

There's no point in doing this if all you are is stressed. 

Smell the flowers, feel the air.

Just be thankful being there.
