Ode to Mom and My Truck

[Johnny49]

Just looking for ways to keep the dream alive while the wallet remains empty... Came up with this little ditty Wednesday morning, thought maybe a few might like and be able to identify ;-)... Hope y'all had a nice Christmas and Happy New Year!

'Tis a chilly Christmas morning and next to the house
sits John's Old Truck, still quiet as a mouse
needs brake drums, a gas gauge and a few other parts
including a battery, to be sure that she starts

The job won't exactly be done in a flash
as is always the deal when you're short on spare cash
but patience is key when you're workin' a dream
and when she finally rolls you just watch Johnny beam

In memory of Mom it's all being done
and driving this thing will be more than just fun
a tribute to the woman we'll never forget
who'll be riding shotgun, on that you can bet!
