My precious, darling Nissan boy, one day I knew you wouldn’t last. Although I thought it just a ploy, a swindle planned to take my cash. Barely you made it down the street, my precious, darling Nissan boy. The tire met fender to a beat, marking the end of days of joy. Someone abused you like a toy, someone I trusted with your life. My precious, darling Nissan boy, why did I let you know such strife? I bid farewell. You can’t be fixed. Your wholeness they want to destroy. It's true you are 2006, my precious, darling Nissan boy. 6/30/17

Your poem is not only beautiful, but I once owned a 260z Datsun, and when she broke, it broke my heart, so I can relate all so mega much. Congratulations with this beautiful piece.

This has made a lot of people think of their old cars. Good contest. This was definitely broken.

Thanks so much for stopping by Freddie. I really appreciate the vote and your comments. He was a good car and I'm sure his cousin was too. Love and blessings, Janis.
