Mary and her husband Larry <br />something bulky had to carry. <br />It was really very heavy <br />had a sign that spelled out Chevy. <br /> <br />They had landed in the ditch <br />called the truck a bloomin' bitch <br />had no money for the tow <br />carried Chevy through the snow. <br /> <br />Heard a very grown-up beep <br />at the corner, saw a Jeep. <br />Got the towrope hooked to fender <br />passed a Voyager Weekender. <br /> <br />Saw the inlaws sit inside <br />on their Sunday morning ride. <br />In-laws gawked in disbelief <br />thought the Jeep would come to grief. <br /> <br />But of course they all went home <br />glittering with all that chrome. <br />But the Cherokee (with frills) <br />had returned to the steep hills.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/obsessions-tread-lightly/
