It is also the month of the AtoZ Challenge, and my 8th year in participating.
Combining the two, I am writing poems based on Maine vanity plates I've spied this past year.
The AtoZ does not have a letter for Sundays, but I will post a non-vanity plate or extra vanity plate poem on that day.
On this 10th day of the Challenge, we are on the letter J.
J is for...
Jeep Love
Oh, there's nothing quite like
a ride in a Jeep
Where nothing's too wet
and nothing's too deep,
At least that's what hubby would say...
But give me some shine
and I will be fine
with hills that don't climb
very steep.
I like me some plush,
Not mountainous glush,
I want AC and heating
and frills;
No slack canvas top
No potholes to hop
a ride that will comfort
not kill.
Cars stay on the road
or so I was told
But hubby says try it
You'll see
That the off-roading life
is exciting and rife
with dangers and mud
to your knee.
"No, thanks", says my back.
"I'll pass", say my teeth.
I think I'll wait here on my own
And when you've returned
I hope you'll have learned
That a Jeep can be fun
all alone.

I'm intrigued (and impressed) by your topic... which you are managing superbly.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, however, that seeing this plate made me read your whole poem with a heavy down-easter accent. :-D
Plus, now I have an earworm! ;-p
Happy A-Z'ing.
Lol! Good! You read it just right then!
