Cars

With apologies to Joyce Kilmer.

I think, “O, shall I ever need
A car much faster than a steed?

A car whose angry maw doth roar
And charges forth forevermore;

One that looks out for cops all day,
And lifts her fibrous spoils to pray;

A car that may in Summer sport
A Rei or Hina of a sort;

Upon whose bosom proudly gleams
A clear cascade of suspect streams?”

Cars may be raced by fools in vain,
But poems, trees are my domain.
