Driving Lessons

My Mother endeavored, to teach me to drive; with transmissions, both standard and automatic. Until it was mastered, she seemed as tense as steel; on the car floor her feet were firmly planted. Her eyes were so large, as she issued instructions; her nerves were on edge, I’ve no doubt. And when it was done, I’d had so much fun; but Mom couldn’t wait to get out!
