Winding up through Virginia
to her western sister
there is a nothing on this stretch of asphalt
except vast green pastures
with brown, black, and white cows mooing;
nothing except the ancient Appalachians
standing watch over the tired truckers;
there is nothing but the sleepy towns
in valleys low and still;
nothing but rocks protruding from the side
of Interstate 81.
Wrote back in May during a trip to Maryland with my parents. I love this highway.
