Today's poem is based on a story from CBS Sunday morning about people going from convertible cars to covered cars, and back again -- the top symbolizing lack of wealth, and then high status and the good life, and then a (too) fast paced lifestyle. It inspired today's poem.
She traded in
her cherry red
convertible
for a topped off wagon
that vowed to get her
to her destinations quicker
and more efficiently.
Because she now had
more places to be
and more people to please
and no longer had time
to cruise
topless
while enjoying
the
sun and breeze.
