How I Drove Grandpa Crazy

HOW I DROVE GRANDPA CRAZY When aged three Mother took me And Grandpa in the car Down the road not too far. At the shop Out she did hop Where we waited and waited Til Grandpa got frustrated. I amused him with my toy Which he did not enjoy So I told him a tale But to no avail! Poor Old Bloke He'd had a stroke Could not walk Or even talk. He was bored I was ignored So I came to decide I'd take him for a ride! My buckle I undid Behind the wheel I slid Turned the key Chuckling with glee! I thought we'd go Ever so slow But soon we went Faster than I meant! Faster and faster I felt like a master Waving arms I could see Flashing past me! People shouted loud I felt so proud Then... just my luck Along came a truck! Heading for me A crash I could foresee, In the flash of a blink I tried to think! I thought I knew What to do But my brain went dumb and I was numb! I tried to steer But off the road we did veer Over curb's edge Into a hedge! I was white with fright, Just hoped Grandpa was alright He'd turned so red I thought he was dead! Soon Mother came And took the blame But was oh so furious With crowd so curious! I am happy to say Grandpa is okay But creates a huge fuss When he goes out with us!
