Uber Easy
We love to visit cities;
Urban blood runs through my veins
And now that we are older,
We’ve no tolerance for trains,
So instead of checking listings
For the local train or bus,
We just call an Uber and it comes
Real fast, without a fuss.
We aren’t on vacation now,
But wanted to go out.
I read of an exhibit
And liked what it was about.
Since the schedule on Sunday
Says the subways will be slow,
We decided that an Uber
Was the only way to go.
It felt like we were on a trip
And not in our backyard.
My husband loved the ease of it
And yes, in that regard
It made a lot of sense because
Convenience, truth be told,
Counts a lot, but even more so
When you’re (I’ll admit it) old!
