Notes About The Poem

 

   

Car-Keys

Oh! as I begin this journal hardly ...I REMEMBER those Car-Keys
I remember in high-school the first time I placed car keys in the ignition

I remember that I had envision some grand flow

I remember that I didn't even know the first auto I was in was a Volkswagen
And I DON'T KNOW HOW! to drive no stick(shift)

I remember hinkN man-Oh-man where's the automatic(transmission)
I remember I hated cars back then, give me my Ten Speed Schwinn™

I remember the simulator trainers, give me them any day liken a video game then
Even need car keys to start them
I remember failing the physical driving test so I went on a road trip on my 10-speed bicycle
But my favorite memory's yet to come
verrrrooom!!

Panagiota Romios October 21, 2019 at 6:10 AM Enjoyed. My first car was a red and white Chevy convertible. How stunning that was. No gear shift, That came later when owning three Fiats. In the 7o's mechanics did not know how to fix Fiats.)))) ugh...PR James Edward Lee Sr. October 22, 2019 at 11:50 AM IAhh! them first keys to that first car in a joyful ride it was, thanks Panagiota
