Chats in the Car

Chats in the Car
We never drive far
May be over the mountains
As the wheels meet the tar

And the bugs find their end
Round each terminal bend
Yet no fly in the ointment with
Conversational friend

We steer around obstacles
We navigate bumps
The pot-hole conundrums,
Of love, never stumps 

We won't get a ticket 
For our speeding or risks
No concerns with this friendship
From detectors or frisks 

I could drive through the night
With you here by my side
It's a wonderful journey
Such a comforting ride

Don't know if we'll arrive
Or the point of it all
But I just count you as blessing
Whether top speed or crawl

For the moments, so fleeting
Are too precious to waste
If we have to conclude this
Let's not get there in haste

We think it is the destination but it is so much about the journey. Bless you dear Hilda. Cx
