A First Car

Books stacked in the floorboards, her breath on polished glass Together you would drive, skipping yet another class Playing hooky in a hand-me-down, if only it could last The memory of her fades each day, like long neglected brass Thank the Lord for that car, & pray you don’t forget her laugh
