THE HIGHWAY MAN (Homage)

**edelabarra** · 28/08/2007, 16:23

This is an homage to an excellent japanise engineer, who was my superior, whith whom we worked together at República del Salvador, in a Highway Project.

THE HIGHWAY MAN

In the Highway department
we know him fine,
each day we see him working
well past the time
Not only that, but he also has
an inside light
for when the things come hard
he laughs or smiles,
so he deserves the name as
“The Highway Man”
this homage must be done to
Kokubo San.

That man of the cart deserves recognition that is sleepy and illusions while it goes by the arduous way of the life.
Very good tribute.
Hugs.

I liked the rime, and I liked the homage, and I also liked the example...this Highway man is a very hard working person from what I can tell, and there are not many hard working people but it shows that if you do work hard your work will not be taken for granted! good work! xD...I have to say this in spanish because I like it more in spanish jajaja: besos!

Dear Canelita: Thank you for your comments, it's nice to read somebody in english, and about one's poem; you may be sure this man was an exceptional proffesional, (he has a master degree in engineering at Harvard), and I had the privilege of working with him for several months. Great experience.

Your poem is good, a professional in the highway, I don't understand it very well, my English is not very good, but my intention in its comment is very sincere.
I give him my stars.

Thank you LOLA,
I see you can do
very well in english,

It's good to practice

in a foreign language.
