riding shotgun with daddy

why is 'there' more important
than traveling along the way
destinations are static
lose their alure
comfortable and grey
sitting to travel
moving while being still
a passenger...
riding shotgun with daddy
.
time passes
i really don't care
when we get there
five more minutes
that's ok
five more hours
five more days
oh years you say
or decades perhaps
millenium I hear
i really don't care
i'd journey forever
sitting right here
right by your side
listening to your stories
such interesting asides
peeking at worlds through
such insight and light
even when I sleep
blissfully so, unaware
inwardly quiet
and peaceful you know
the rumble of your engine
the whine of your soul
the fuel of your love
moving us, propelling us
on this kingdom of journeys
this way of traveling
awake in the morning
still by my side
time unimportant
no night in your light
just this moment
that's all I care
just this moment
the Kingdom of Heaven
riding shotgun beside you
time standing still
riding shotgun with daddy
no better way of living
of seeing your world.
