Sporting A Higher Octane
~*Marge Tindal*~

You took my heart for a joy ride.
Pushed the pedal to the floor.
Revving it up with pride,
you ran it 'round once more.

Once around the block
was enough I do suppose.
Just a thrill ride for you.
That's how this jalopy heart goes !

You took my heart for a ride
then brought it back with an empty tank.
I just hate to admit it
but your driving really stank !

I towed to the nearest pump
and had it filled again.
That good-looking guy at the gas station
sure sports a higher octane !

Marge~ I never have words enough to say what a joy your poetry is to read. Never boring, and I knew from the title it was another "sporty one". Loved it!

Girlfriend ... this fellow could make my engine roar anytime !
Not sure I was thinking ...
more like lusting with my brain
and other relevant parts !

Victoria~
Oh, honey ... he had a tiger in his tank !

LoneWolf~
I can GUARANTEE if you'd seen him
you'd be grinning big time !

BloomingRose~
Okay ... sporty fits it just right !

Vicky~
Feisty ?
Oh, honey ... I didn't even CARE how much the gas cost !

*You gals are soooooo much fun !
I wish we could have a slumber party !
Wouldn't that be a blast ?

   the right word here...lol.

   maybe i need to take a
   cross-country drive.

   me...i'm there!!
