The Many Faces of Volterra #3

Meet Jim and Julie Roth



The Wreck of the old 57
On a quiet paved road in Tuscany
In San Gimi had  something to eat
On a curve between there and Voltera
His face and a guard rail did meet
He entered the turn with a smile            But speed and the drop was
too great
The leaning skid across the tarmac 
Said recovery was not on his plate
Front wheel connects with support post
Fork snaps  where it enters the frame
He becomes  an instant projectile 
On a flight that will cause him some pain
First to hit steel was helmet and face
Then a slide on the left shoulder blade
With 360 complete on elbow and feet
On the ground he starts to fade
The medical service has been great!
Jim
