George Carlin – “Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?”
sweethearts…
teenagers newly licensed to love
street worthy
and inexperienced thereof
learning…
how to make all the right turns
then love blinded – crash!
broadsided; a left turn that burns
brokenhearted…
“them’s the breaks” when they fail
opinion’s collide
flat tired when amends don’t prevail
emotional…
feelings though crushed; still alive
new respect for the road
shaken and not quite ready to drive
lessons learned. give it another try
roadworthy…
again, with a body shop realign
a little older and wiser
still flawed. yet polished to shine
navigating…
the bumps and potholes in life
by love’s Rand McNally
“Just Married”, a man and a wife
committed…
not going too slow or ever too fast
a family all-in for the long haul
knowing when to pass or be passed
maintained…
through sunny rays and the rains
well kept mileage in years
“Antique” the silver plate explains
Beautifully penned, Angel. Into the book it belongs! This is an incredible write my friend, it’s not cheesy at all. Loved the Carlin quote. Huge fan of George, he was a wise man who happened to be funny as well. Appreciate you.

Vivid and sharp. Superb
With my driving, I am a reformed maniac, now an idiot hahahaha. Wasn’t a cheesy write at all. Liked it!
