This is a little poem I wrote in response to a Challenge in "Poetry Challenge!", which was to write a poem using four letter words only. (much harder than it looks!) Anyway I thought it had a peculiar charm to it.... so here it is.


"Cars Rush"

Cars rush ever late
veer, zoom, turn, dart.
iced road.  Fast rate.
need that fuel mart!
loud pipe ears pain.
stay left fast lane.
back tire goes flat.
bark, yell, cuss, drat!


Harder than it looks! try it sometime!

Enjoyed this very much.  And - it is harder than you make it seem.

Play this game
away with same
chop said name
hold your dame
love once came
flow warm fame
keep life tame

Well I tried, I think you mastered it much better, great job.
