Jo Bien Poet Verse

Long May We Run

the engine revs as we wind it out
a relationship entwined with passion and doubt
we fine tune the rattles, switch out the oil
long may we run, long may we run

we pump in gas and take to the road
never a smooth track, sometimes overload
as we hit the brakes, downshift to low
long may we run, long may we run

we run on fumes and the motors heat
good times and bad thrown in the backseat
toss in change for the tolls and onward we go
long may we run, long may we run 

memories that we stow in the trunk
with a spare, a jack and miscellaneous junk
over each bridge and some excruciating bumps
long may we run, long may we run
