Fade away

I found this cleaning up some old folders.  I submitted it for a poetry contest at work a while back, I didn’t win.  Thought this would be a good place to capture it.

 

I wondered why, I wandered far

Then I stumbled on my car

I thought for a bit

Then opened it

And sat and slouched and sighed

 

I turned the key

Hopefully

It coughed and gasped then started

Is the only thing that rhymes farted?

Well that stinks

 

Off I went into the night

Like a solar landscape light

Strong at first

Yet undoubtfully cursed

To fade away
