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.
