Harley and Me...........

Reflecting back on days gone by
Memories of a tear run dry
A passion exuded by friends in life
Driven by joy but ended in strife
Opened my eyes to what is desire
How is it fuelled this eternal fire
No tragedy or broken dreams
Would shatter all that it seems
Keeping perspective and staying true
Always the love and never the blue
Picking up the pieces and looking ahead
Never wondering of a passion dead
Forever dedicated to their point of view
Forever in love with what they do.......

About this poem:
I had two different friends that had the same passion for riding and owning Harley Davidson motorcycles..........one I watched as he rebuilt his bike after being cleaned up by a cane harvester and losing his leg in the process but not to be deterred rode that bike again ......the other saved cent by cent over a 14 month period to buy the bike of his dreams.........each time I bumped into him he shared his counting with me ......it saddened me to hear he had also lost his leg in an accident and I am certain had I run into him again I am sure he would have been counting again ............
