Bike Ride
from
Frilassing, Germany
to
Salzburg, Austria
Boarded our bikes
in freezing rain
along the river path
the path it ran
Thru woods and fields
both high and low
puddles and rivers
fast and slow
Our bones they
shivered our hands
quite cold
the river roaring
as the night grew old
After hours of riding
Salzburg we came
had ceased
the rain
the rain
but not the pain
Greek restaurant
we spied
quickly inside
cozy and warm
menu belied
hot soup and beer
soon appeared
happily we ate
food disappeared
Mozart's Festival
begun
could hear Opera
being sung
The Horse Fountain
was near
at Horse paintings
we peered
A magnificent sight
and such a delight
to ride our bikes
around Salzburg
by night
