Robert Pettit Poet Rhyme

A Mechanic's Love Poem

You can be my hubcap if you let me be your wheel.
The love I have for somebody like you is real.
I can give you plenty of loving.  I aim to please.
I will be your radiator if you will be my antifreeze.
You are so attractive to my eye my dear.
You’ve got my transmission shifting into high gear.
There’s no need to wait four thousand miles for an oil change.
A date with you and me is something I can easily arrange.
I can give you a tune-up with a new set of spark plugs.
You just have to be around to give me plenty of hugs.

Samual Ronthorpe February 20, 2012 at 7:11 PM LOL......Robert, there are so many good lines here, it should be illegal, but I'm glad it's not. "I will be your radiator if you will be my antifreeze.", what a wonderful line. I am jealous that I didn't think of it first. The entire poem is a gem, you should be proud. Hat's off to you, my friend, really good work. Congrats on making Brian's winners' list................S.Ronthorpe
