Poem Artwork

Yesterday sixty-five,

Today fifty-one,

Tomorrow cooler,

But what the hell,

We had some fun…

 

 

Sure at night its brisk,

On this ole earthly disk,

But again what the hell,

Only rainfall we’ve had,

No snow yet has fell…

 

 

Finally today had a chance,

To wash the Jeep though it wasn’t bad,

But cleaning it does of that color enhance,

And again, what the hell, it won’t last long,

The winter will return, of that you can bet,

And then nothing you do will ever be wrong…

Washed and waxed the car, pristine, shinning, until a long-haul eith-teen wheeler went by and mud splashed it all over!
