Caren Krutsinger Poet Senryu

My Car Is Ugly

my car is ugly
cheap is the price we have paid
comfortable though

my car is ugly
I do not impress people
traveling on highways

my car is ugly
people probably laughing
I do not notice

my car is ugly
I could not have driven this
in uppity youth

Jennifer Proxenos January 4, 2020 at 8:23 AM Youth is a little arrogant and has too much pride, we mellow with time. Brilliant write Caren, Blessings, Jennifer. Caren Krutsinger January 4, 2020 at 6:32 PM It is funny but when I was young I would not have been caught "dead or alive" in this car.

Richard Lamoureux January 3, 2020 at 7:41 PM I’m curious, what model and make? I’m sure it’s not ugly.;0) Caren Krutsinger January 4, 2020 at 4:58 AM My husband is kind of pouting because it is actually his car. It is an eight year old Mercury Marquis, and it looks like an "old man's car to me" but it is insanely comfortable.
