Notes About The Poem

     

Classy Chassis Chevy

Classy Chassis 
Rusted and Busted

I was a classic beauty at my time
Eyes of envy upon me at the time

My body and chrome spit shine
My windows reflected the world’s soul and mind
My sweet smelling leather seats you’d climb
And place your bare legs, feet on the dash
Driving me down Main Street with a sudden lash

Rusted and Busted
Abandoned and forgotten

I adorn

The sun kiss and the smell of rain field
Now green velvet moss conceals,
Air threads through my broken windshields

When once you sat,
The stain and smell of mildew on my crack leather seats,
Brown leaves and twigs rest  on old broken springs
Nature’s home of exquisite silence yields

I think of the past and the future
A classic beauty at my time

Now

Rusted and Busted
Abandoned and forgotten
