"Highway Star" the Glenn hughes song he covered that inspired me.

No one can take my baby ‘cause she was meant for me. My baby and I go cruisin’ and that’s when I feel free. My baby takes me anywhere that I could want to be. Playing tunes, I take her down curves that lead to the sea. My baby looks cool, top down. She’s smooth and she is fast. The wind caresses us as the shoreline we go past. My baby’s built for comfort. I stop and then recline, gazing into the night and feeling ever so fine. My baby doesn’t mind a single thing I do. She’s just as sweet today as when she was brand new. My baby doesn’t get jealous when I leave her until dawn. She knows when the morning comes again I’ll be turning her on. I spend the night with my honey. We both get up for the day. I turn my baby on; she purrs and she carries me away. My baby’s a convertible - a Mustang perfect for me. My honey can jump in his jeep. With my baby a while I’ll be! .

This is a great poem about your baby… a mustang. The words compliment the song very well. Congrats on third in the contest. It was well deserved.

Andrea, I was thinking you were writing about a guy and his car until the last verse. Funny how bias works. This is a lot of fun. You do remarkable things and very direct things with words. It's a great style you have!!!
