Life Down the Road
As a child it was exciting to head down the road on family road trips, then head on my own down our "gravel lane" to begin a new adventure. My life has taken many rewarding trips down the road.
Life Down the Road
Summer days pedaling bikes down the gravel paths
Dust on our legs, sun on our faces, chasing the wind
Creating imaginary adventures along the way
Dreaming of days we would go further down the road
Teen years came, bikes gave way to cars
Cruising on the familiar paths and roads
Drive-in movies, dances, school events
Summer night celebrations with friends
The day arrived to embark on the drive to adult life
Off to begin first job, driving very first car
Stealing glances in the rearview mirror
A bittersweet sense of adventure filled my heart
That drive down the road into adulthood
Lead to countless more road trips
New paths, opportunities, challenges
New life experiences, cherished memories created
Growth, changes, new friendships, blessings
All started with a journey down the road
