Take me For a Ride Take me in your car with all that chrome and blow my hair across my face like I was eighteen and new in your yellow shine your tuck and roll intoxicates me and the sound of your breathing engine ignites my oh take me for a ride in leather in your open door to the sky to the star studded flame you paint rum de rum strum wheels circle me with this highway dance and I will read your map yes and take you places places where turbo charge is a feeling yes and the night is metallic and I see myself in the reflection of your oh so sweet and clean delivery Take me in your car with all that chrome and blow my hair across my face like I was eighteen and new |

Visions of the shiny convertibles I had - the summers - top down flying down the highway to the beach - no cares just the throaty roar of the duals and windblown hair and smiles - thanks for taking me back~S~ |

Maree--I'm glad you enjoyed...thanks for stopping by. Marge--something about the sound of a good motor gets to me...thanks. Philip--Glad this gave you a lift. Bill--I went to a car show on Sunday...so many of those old cars looking new again...thanks. Butterflies--The road is great, but I'd rather fly like a butterfly. |

On "That Long and Winding Road" my friend and definitely with my engine purring and revving to "YOUR" song on this one. Now how about a ride in a pick-up truck instead? After all, you do know what follows behind the cab don't you? Makes for a wonderful glance of the starry sky at night in those mountains of southern California ya know. Loved every twist and turn in this one. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |

Martie, I like this one. To feel the freedom and newness of it all. Awesome. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
