The Elefant Parting Greet   by Paul Kristensen

 

The Elefant Parting Greet

Elefant riders that time has come
When we must depart
For pastures more familiar
But remember to tell the riders at home about the new pastures seen
And the new elefant riders met
But remember this
that we meet again
Once more to explore the pastures of our European lands

Keep the rubber side down and handlebars in the air
Keep the smile on you face
Spread the word of our most recent meet
Send those words & photos of encouragement over the ether
To the members of the herd
who could not make it to be seen or heard

swift healing to those who are injured
send tales of encouragement to those who could not make it
so that it is them we greet when we next meet
once more to explore the pastures of our European land

remember
the call of the whistling gas cap
the clatter of the clutch
the constant chatter in our European tongue
the one thread that binds all together
the love and hate for our ride
that of the Cagiva Elefant

I think I speak for all that
when we next meet
Slovenia
Holland
France
where shall it be ?
Once more to explore the pastures of our European Land

We shall once again tell the tale of the past year
Of pastures we have seen
On that great journey where the elefant has been
Don’t forget the riders in the sky and those from afar
Blow the trumpet of the Treffen so they might hear
To cross the sea
To come and graze with us
Once more in the pastures of our European Land
