to round a curve and see forever in the distance
sometimes we have been away and forget the fun
of curvy roads, to climb up and coast down
sometimes we pass by and take the view for granted,
maybe it is socked in with fog or clouds, maybe we are running late
sometimes we glance over and do a double-take,
wow, the Atlanta skyline 55 miles from here!
sometimes we just have to pull over and stand at the edge in awe
of all that empty space, acres of trees, and clean air
sometimes it is nice to live in the city
but not near as nice as seeing it in the distance
