A Truck Drivers Wife

I have been privileged, To hold in my life, The title that’s known As a truck driver’s wife. Now, women all know Being married is rough. But, marry a trucker, And then let’s talk tough! The miles that they run, And, the job that they do, Gives us grey hairs, And fries our nerves too. And when they get lonely, And call up the house, Who’s there for ‘em to turn to? it ain’t Mickey Mouse! But, through all the turmoil, The stress, struggle, and strife, Those men appreciate The finer things in life, And they’ll thank their lucky stars For a truck drivers wife!

I am thrilled that you enjoyed it so much! I have enjoyed living that life for 19 years now. I am also thankful for the suggestion. I have been hoping for this kind of suggestion for several of my poems. Thank you , for your praise and your help. Blessed be
