There was this girl

Sojourn Poetry

The old man walked towards the motorcycle
and asked, โ€œWhere you from? Where you going?โ€

โ€œIโ€™m from Ohio, and headed to Colorado?
Where you from?โ€

โ€œIโ€™m headed home to Oklahoma City.โ€

โ€œBut, youโ€™re wearing a Nebraska Corn Huskers t-shirt.โ€

โ€œAh, well, Iโ€™m originally from Nebraska,
but I met this girl in Oklahoma.โ€

Iโ€™m not sure what brought that smile to his face,
talking about the motorcycle, or that girl in Oklahoma.
