Used Cars

I passed a used car lot and thought of my own vehicle...and had to crack- a-smile: a lot of mileage and poorly maintained~ tires often over inflated seldom attentively cleaned and meticulously polished... Of course, it has been “My Way”, sort of like a Sinatra song but far less flamboyant, though not entirely deprived of Bragging Rights. And yet, there has been an element of destiny, I am lost to fully define...that mist we come from, the shadows we know are there, lurking behind the screen, just beyond a mind's rational edge Often struggling to determine my real from my visually, audibly imaged, I am only certain of our shared affection, the lingering warmth of heated embraces I have carried with me into the chill of separate days~ with our breathless kisses that somehow define life beyond all breathable borders – Who knows? Maybe there is a Heaven, as love remains the greatest Wonder of The World~ 7 + its best.

This poem reminds me of an ordeal I just went through, trading in my used vehicle for another newer used vehicle. You then, brought me to other places and thoughts with your insightful writing. Great one :)

Hi Heidi; this clunker body of mine, could definitely use at the least, new shocks and serious body. Turning back the speedometer is now illegal~ darn it! Thank you, Heidi.
