Ode to Toyota ... by Sean English

Listen my friends, to a story, that I am about to tell

About a group of Goldwing riders, And their fearless leader Del

From Nevada through Death Valley, Towing trailers full of gear

Though Rich Blackburn was in front, Our good friend Del led from the rear

As the sunshine brightly sparkled, On the Goldwing’s shiny chrome

Del would keep a watchful eye, O’er the herd on their way home

Something then caught Del’s attention, An angry cow, that can’t be right

He swore he saw it put its head down, And charge the herd with all its might

A mighty finger pressed the button, “One thousand one” was never heard

Del’s booming voice said rather calmly, “A mad cow’s charging toward our herd"

A cloud of dust came quickly toward them, The herd reacted to Del’s cry

Now they sat and started laughing, As an old Toyota truck drove by

CA1M Goldwing riders, Travel roads both near and far

These friends get an experience, That you’d never find inside a car

With a bold and noble leader, Del’s living life so large

But we all know the story…., That Joanne’s the one in charge

So listen my friends, to a story, That I am about to tell

About a group of Goldwing riders, And their fearless leader Del
