A Bold Caper

A boy can't drive endlessly forever.  Going home is justified.
Knocking loudly makes nice old Pop quickly respond,
Smiling tearfully, "Uncle Victor's wild xerus yanked zinnias".

Very clever. Good luck in the contest. This seems so hard to do. Congrats on a job well done.

It's amazing how you managed to tell a story in three lines using the ABC form. Very creative, Joyce! Love, Carolyn
