Thoughts from the Road

Just Want All You Bikers Passing Through To Know That

YOU"RE #1 WITH ME

 

I call Him Bro

By: Bob Bryant

 

He has a biker heart

He has a gypsy soul

You can always find him

On the highway, where he rolls

 

He has a beautiful lady

He has an awesome bike

He stands for what he believes in

He’s not afraid to fight

 

He wears a cross for Jesus

Tattooed on his arm

He says, He gave his life for me

I believe, and that’s not wrong

 

He’s one righteous biker

This is a fact I know

You wonder how I know this

Well, because I call him Bro’

Her Soul

By: Bob Bryant

 

Who questions the soul of cold iron

The beast that sits before him

The steed that bares his weight to ride

The quick start when beckoned upon to awaken

Do not doubt her being

 

Do not question the heart of the lady

The gorgeous creature pampered by the love of a man

The lady that shines in the sun

The lady that sits idly by awaiting the touch that fills her with life

Do not for one second falsify her being

 

Never underestimate the hold she has on her man

Never deny that you can see the love between them

Nor doubt he fulfills her every need

Or her, his

Do not disrespect her heart

 

You need only look at the two of them together

Look at his eyes as he looks at her

See the pride and love he holds for her in his heart

No, do not doubt her being, nor her heart

Nor the soul he has created within his bike

I HAVE SEEN

By: Bob Bryant

 

 

I have seen the look of love from a woman’s eyes

I have seen passions fire looking into mine from hers

I have seen her look at her newborn child with love

I have seen her long hair blowing in the wind

I have seen good things in life

 

I have seen fog blow away to show the mountain side

I have seen streams flowing freely over the rocks

I have seen the trees freely blowing

I have seen the newness of a frosty morn’

I have seen the good things in life

 

I have seen her smiling through the mirror as we ride

I have seen life from the saddle of an iron horse

I have seen freedom through eyes that are mine

I have seen the full moon while riding a country road

I have seen the good things in life

 

I have seen a brother smile as he rides the wind

I have seen bikers come together for a cause

I have seen a lone leather clad biker on a winter day

I have seen spring bring many riding seasons

I have seen the good things in life

…………………………………………………

Let me re-phrase

I have seen  “ The Best “ things in life

                     Have You? 

                         By : Bob Bryant

 

Have you ever heard the thunder

Of straight pipes late at night

Have you ever seen the highway

Illuminated by one headlight

 

Have you ever felt the rain

Putting a sting upon your skin

Have you ever had a true brother

That wasn’t your average friend

 

Have you ever twisted the throttle

Because the road it laid out straight

Have you ever done crazy stuff

Some call it tempting fate

 

Have you ever felt the feeling

Of the wind against your face

Have you ever just gone riding

Not heading anyplace

 

Have you ever loved a woman

On the ground, underneath the stars

Have you ever grabbed cold iron

While looking through the bars

 

Have you ever stopped to wonder

What makes your soul so free

Have you ever just pulled over

To admire the sights you see

 

Have you ever been arrested

Because of who you are

Have you ever waved to children

As they pass by in a car

 

Have you worn your weathered leather

For protection, not just looks

Have you torn down your ol’ Bike

Without looking at the books

 

Have you caught the look of the ladies

As you go riding by

Have you noticed how their husbands

Look out the corner of their eyes

 

Have you ever took off all alone

To keep in touch with your soul

Have you ever done that, to remember

Freedom, not money is your goal

 

If any of what you just read

 Brings back memories, good or bad

Then you can pretty much bet your ass

                               A Bikers life you’ve had

Onto The Highway

By : Bob Bryant

 

 

As he headed out onto the highway

Sun shining brightly off his bike

His plan was to travel many miles

Before he shut her down that night

 

He’d had enough of the hassles

Of obeying the rules of man

He decided to leave it all behind

Take his bike and travel the land

 

He knew his bike was ready

His clothes were packed on the back

He had jeans and Tee shirts

Every one of them orange and black

 

They had been packed away in the attic

For the years that he’d been down

He put them away years ago

Sold his bike and tried settling down

 

It turned out to be a life that he hated

Doing the 9 to 5 every day

After about 5 years of this crap

Knew it was time to get away

 

Bought himself a brand new Harley

Had been eyeing it for awhile

Dug his clothes from the attic

Was ready again to travel the miles

 

As he headed out onto the highway

Sun shining brightly off his bike

His plan was to travel many miles

Before he shut her down that night

PONDERING?

By : Bob Bryant

 

The night as black as unworn leather

Heat as hot as the passion of new love

The pipes humming like Angels singing

He rode looking for an answer from above

 

His thoughts as heavy as the humid night air

Searching for an answer to sooth his soul

The question that had him pondering life

Was how could a man his age feel so old

 

He wondered:

Could it have been all the partying?

Could hard work have diminished his years?

Could it be the fights that put aches in his bones?

Could it have been living free of fear?

 

Could it be the nights of sleeping on the ground?

Could it be the downtime that he served?

Could it have come from trying to please everyone?

This included the family he loved

 

Could it be the nights the wind chilled to his bones?

Could it be the limp from a road rash scar?

Could it just be the gray starting to change his long hair?

Could it simply be life’s hassles from destiny’s star?

 

A cool breeze hit him as he rode through the bottom

He smiled at the relief from the dense heat

The answer was as clear as the moon above

No matter the age, being a BIKER is hard to beat

Mutual Respect

By: Bob Bryant

 

Walking into the morning air

Dew on the seats worn leather

The only thought on his mind

I hope rising temperatures are within the weather

 

He shakes the thoughts of the cold

From his bandana bound head

He fires the bike to warm her up

As he wipes the cold dew from the sled

 

The thundering thump beckons to him

“I’m ready to hit the road”

He smiles as he wipes the last of the dew

Tells her “ I know you don’t mind the cold”

 

“But have some sympathy for your rider”

“For my years are Forty and Three”

“The sting of the cold is not as hard”

“On you as it is on me”

 

“But you just remember this old friend”

“He tells her as he climbs on her back”

“If you show attitude towards me”

“I’ll ride you without cutting you slack”

 

 She seems to laugh from her hearty thump

 As the two of them hit the street

For she knows from within her lubricated heart

A tougher ol’ biker you’ll never meet

RESTLESS SPIRIT

By: Bob Bryant

 

He loves the feeling of the ride

As he races against the wind

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

He feels it from deep within

 

He doesn’t care what another man thinks

Could give a damn about the stares

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

Thus the tattoos and long hair

 

He never did quite fit in

Even as a child he stood alone

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

That’s why he answers the call to roam

 

He knows he draws the attention of the ladies

He’s watched many walk away

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

They couldn’t handle it enough to stay

 

He asks nothing from other men

He handles business his on way

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

As if a Lone Wolf gone Astray

 

His loneliness never slows him

Knows he is destined to stand outside

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

It shows in his Biker Pride

 

He’s never been able to tame his soul

Says a mans soul must remain free

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

Puts it out there for the world to see

 

He loves the feeling of the ride

As he races against the wind

He knows he bares a “Restless Spirit”

He feels it from deep within
