Thank you, Karen and Robert Palumbo, for a memorable day. MY Karen and I are now NASCAR NUTZ! LOL


Poem Artwork


The sound still resonates
deep within the soul,
shaking me to the core
as they thunder by --

Numbers flash as they pass
at breakneck speeds, with
my neck following the
action on the track --

On my feet, hollering
for the driver I 
like best to do his best
(Number Seventeen) * --

Shared with special friends, this
was a special day,
filled with laughter and fun
and a lot of noise --

NASCAR qaulifying
at Texas Motor
Speedway:  my first event
will not be my last.  :)

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (4/12)

*  # 17, Matt Kenseth, qualified 10th out of 44 cars for the Busch Series Race to be held Saturday, April 14, 2007, at Texas Motor Speedway.  WAY TO GO, MATT!!!  LOL

But can I go to the REAL races?  No...have to work.  :(

Some have blood in their veins, others, the lucky ones have a lot of high octane gasoline pouring from their hearts.
Noise? yes, plenty of that, talking to the souls with thunder.

I still hear the racers in my head, as you probably do; wow, were they ever LOUD!! MAN!! (Thank GOD for ear plugs, or I'd still be going "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?" LOL

A rip roarin' ride around the track of poetry; you take the checkered flag for sure with this winning entry! BRAVA, maybe you can challenge Kenseth in a future race of verse?? LOL (You'd win for sure--unless he writes poetry! LOL)

(((HUGS))) and much love, your (sunburnt) twin sis, Karen Lynn. :D

But it was worth it! Thank you, Karen and Robert Palumbo; we had a ball! :)

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooo, Matt Kenseth!! WHOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO!! :D
