Wheels in motion
causing commotion
graunching of gears
worn down by many years
of lady drivers learning
the lessons so concerning
till confidence is gained
and L plates exchanged
many miles on the speedo
and so many more to go
tyres turned till old Blue
aged and was no longer new
with motor ceased, stuck and still
grimy, weather worn grill
now no showroom beauty
just waiting for a cutie
blonde, pretty bombshell
who played the car shark well
a good deal was quickly got
but her phone number was not
Old Blue sat, sadly now inert
till encrusted rust and dirt
collected like many a memory
the pretty gal no longer sprightly
as years have passed for her
time passed quickly now a blur
fondly she looked at snaps
of happy picnics and maps
recording the route of trips
and faded newspaper clips
taken of Old Blue by the ocean
many memories of joyous emotion
Sadness as now Old Blue just sat
while the lovely remembered that
of time gone past many happy times
spent on sunny days and steep hilly climbs
till came a young man with a notion
speaking of Old Blue again in motion
agreement quickly resounded
waving hand and horn sounded
Old Blue in motion moved on
goodbye but never forgotten
out with the old in with the new...
