At seventy-five
In a forty zone
There are a hundred cars
In front of
A black Dodge RAM
With smoked windows
Flashing its lights;
Honking its horn
To get everyone
Out of its way
Reaching
The next red light
First.
Five red lights later
That black Dodge RAM
Waits long
To turn left
Into a Starbucks
Parking lot
As hundreds glide by
At forty.
I am 'always' thinking this My new writing friend Lloyd!
With fast drivers, worse so with people hugging their friend/pets....
Oh, I will be thinking, Pink Floyd, since I stared to follow your heartstrings/writings!I have to look up treacle, hmmm...I think I know...
I see this wonderful poem is from your Book, CONGRATULATIONS on getting one out for other eyes and hearts to be touched!
WRITE ON!
Warmest of Blessings of Love, Light and Peace, Warrior Purple Lady SHEExooo
May your New Year bring you a Happy and Healthy Journey forward!

Finely conceived.
