Across The Plain


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

South Dakota's Boredom was killing me,

It was also killing my college friend, Doug.

We saw the world as a ballroom,

Together we set out to cut a rug!

 

The prairie was flat, never ending,

Snow made the plains mile after mile, white.

Day after day of long-distance traveling,

Seemed we slept in the same place each night.

 

Iowa, Minnesota, so many different people,

Packed inside a crowded Trail Ways bus…

We discovered more than different places:

Every person on Earth, was just like us.

 

Our goal was NOLA, Mardi Gras,

We stopped a thousand miles short.

When asked to describe the scenery,

We had only snow and Pheasants to report.
