GO ...............somewhere

GO
Somewhere
>>WHY GO?
Go for an ice cream, go for a bun, go to check on the height of the tide, the colour of the sand or wheter the heather is in bloom.
Go because you've never been there, or because you liked it last time you went.
Go because you can.
Go because it may not be there next time.
Go because the sun is shining or because it's a Tuesday.
Go from Devon to Yorkshire to fill a flagon.
Go to Eccles for a cake or Melton Mowbray for a pork pie.
There's a great fish and chip shop in Ullapool.
>>WHEN AND HOW?
Go now, go tomorrow, go in five minutes.
Go next Wednesday or go on 15 July.
Go at every possible opportunity, or go on a special occasion.
>>GETTING THERE
Thake he high road, take the low road, thake the long way, take the fast way, take a short cut, take a detour.
Whatever you do, go by motorcycle.
This pandemic has been interminable, so let's just get out and ride.

Bovenstaande stukje poëzie - neergepend door Hugo Wilson, hoofdredacteur - heb ik integraal overgenomen uit een vorig jaar verschenen exemplaar van het Britse motormagazine BIKE.
(enige aanpassing: woordje "lockdown" heb ik vervangen door "pandemic".)
