What Am I?
A Road.

Thomas Riley Smith c.2022

Run my reds and cross my yellow lines,
it's a good day to breathe,
it's a good day for the sun to rise.
Sometimes I'm black-top and
sometimes I've paved with gold.
What am I? A road.

Follow me down to the
place where love is bold.
It’s a good day to pay your respects
and just watch it grow.
Sometimes I go on forever
and sometimes I'm closed.
What am I? A road.

Lights and seasons and signs and fears,
go by faster with each passing year.
Who would blame you if
you blew right thru the tolls?

You know me long enough
so you know where I can go.
I'm just sayin', I'm just sayin'
it's alright , it's alright.
You know me well enough
to anticipate my twist,
slow me down till I'm sayin',
I'm just sayin' it's alright.
It’s alright.

Dust kicks up like a hundred stories told.
It’sa good day to talk,
it's a good day to save a soul.
Sometimes I'm narrow, but
I'll get'cha where you've got to go.
