The Last Mile:  Westview Drive

Author:  Brent Brewer

Whose route this is I think I know
Though we’re always busy and on the go
For that long last mile before we get home
We’ll soon slow down the traffic flow.

Folks kept alive by affordable care
Taking their pills with their daily three squares
They struggle with chronic “black” diseases
While driving that last mile before they sleep.

The car commuters think it queer
To hear bold bikers shift their gears,
Zipping downtown in under thirty minutes
And cycling the last mile before they sleep.

They give their heads a dubious shake
When those M. A. Jones kids trumpet neighbors awake
Creating school buses with a parade of lively feet
Walking that last mile before they sleep.

Enjoy the view, why should we wait?
Driving, cycling, walking along the way
A shared safe space without delay!

A changing Westview Drive has promises to keep.
Let’s travel the last mile together, before we sleep.
Let’s travel the last mile together, before we sleep.
