The Perfect Road Trip Wouldn't Be (summer writing prompt 2)

The perfect road trip wouldn’t be,

In reality, for neither you or me.

There would be a car that would go for miles

Without having to stop for a while.

My friends and I would have a ball

But of course the trip would start in Fall.

The weather would be nice every single day

But with Winter the skies turn grey.

The trip would go from east to west

Without any worry or stress.

We’d see everything North of the Mississippi

From Mount Rushmore to weird hippies.

My friends and I we’d eat new food

Or at least when we are in the mood.

The music blasting from all around

Would be my favorite band, 3 Doors Down.

We’d meet new people from everywhere,

With different stories that are very rare.

And when the night would fall on us

We’d pitch our tent and just distress.

Sometimes not even sleeping at all

We’d keep going like a bouncy ball.

If only this trip would come true

Because it sounds like something I’m into.

But for now it stays in my head,

Maybe one day I’ll go before I’m dead.
