Ode to 1959 Pink Cadillac

1959 Pink Cadillac
Driven by my first boyfriend
He was fifteen
Those tail fins were really something!

And the chrome was dazzling!
Marvelously beautiful.
Amazing. We still speak of it.
Because I married him.

Wish we still had this classic car.

I have written several poems about it - it was built like a tank
