Topless

I'm motoring about with my top down. I'm getting strange looks, but never a frown. Ladies eyes go green and mens’ chins drop. Until it clouds over and I have to stop. I press a little harder and up it comes, as the first drops of rain begin to drum. It lands with a click and on we go. Me and my darling convertible Peugeot.

I can imagine you cruising with the top down, in your Ray-Bans, pastel coloured jacket with rolled-up sleeves, Jean. Sort of 'Miami Vice', with Guinness. Nice write! Viv x

I must get back to base here Pashang. At the moment I am putting together my second book of picture poems, where I match personal photos to personal poems. Each book must have 60 poems, so progress is slow...but fun.

I love the verse, Jean, way to go with the top down on your convertible... the title was really a catcher :) Hugs Eve
