The Route 66 Ordeal -- Part 1 of 3 -- Audio

Listen to poem:
NOTE: This is the FIRST PART, of a THREE-PART, 27 1/2-ish minute long audio poem about a bizarre experience that I, my wife, and 6 good friends of our had when cruising for a few days in our classic cars. This was the summer of 1996, and, despite my picking on them a wee bit, everyone we met bent over backwards to help us recover from a near-tragic breakdown. It was like we were stranded in "Mayberry"! And FYI: I plan to post many of my AUDIO files over the next few months, most from my 4 new AUDIO-CDs, along with many more text files from my several books of verse. (Only a few CDs and books left - 2-14-21). Because, as with most poets, it simply depends on the mood I’m in at writing time, my pieces vary greatly, from lightheartedly comical to meaningfully poignant, and even a few slightly irreverent works. If you happen to enjoy contemporary “traditional verse” - and my personal style, and appreciate great variety, please visit my website’s at: WWW,WRITEROFBOOKS.COM --- or Google me...after 58 years of penning verse and authoring books, I’m easy to reach! Cheers, Mark Stellinga
