Dad's full name Charles but you can call him Chuck <br />he was happiest when he was driving his Truck. <br />Peterbilt he says is the best-he won a "Safe Driver Award" for he was above the rest. <br />"Best Driver Of The Year" he was named, he had his award framed. <br />I will always remember the smell of gas <br />I love the smell, it would remind me of time gone past. <br />A memory in time of my childhood days <br />I sat in Dad's Peterbilt at Dad's Dahlen's truck place <br />Dad started the engine and honked the horn it was very loud I did learn to scrorn. <br />Respect "Truck Drivers" for they bring food and gas home they risk their life in a storm. <br />Dad would go on layovers, a 3 state run through these states he had a lot of fun. <br />He was an efficient driver he did always state, never falling asleep even when driving late. <br />He talked on the phone to all of his trucker friends <br />they had all kinds of stories that never did end. <br />I remember him coming home late one night—He looked tired but had a bite. <br />A very efficient driver he did always state he never fell asleep when he drove real late. <br />He talked on the phone to all of his trucker friends, trucker stories that never did end. <br />I remember him coming home late one night—he looked tired but had a bite. <br />4 hours of sleep he said he always had, he worked in the wee hrs. he was a brave Dad. <br />Thanks Dad for you are very dear, cherished childhood memories that bring a tear. <br /> <br />Written by Suzae Chevalier on February 6,2013 <br />www.suzae.com www.suzaria.com<br /><br />Suzae Chevalier<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dad-is-the-best-truck-driver/
