He wanted to drive a racecar- a deed that would make him a star. His friends would say wow- and Mom, praise avow for scoring top level- bizarre! Now flashing on his radar view a race with a Kayak would too- Mam Hannah runs them- each noon plans a gem! So great if he did place in two!

Dear Sandra, your poem brims with joy! The rhyme scheme perfectly captures the boy's racing spirit. "Bizarre" for Mom's reaction is a delightful twist. Adding the twist of the Kayak race with Mom makes it a truly heartwarming family story. - Blessings, Daniel
