Don't know why, but I just started writing this today while thinking about our favorite car, I am not a poet by any means, but see what you think.


A twist of the key, a mechanical whir
In the blink of an eye, the engine purrs

The clutch goes down, shifter in gear
On the street tonight, they've lots to fear

'Cause I'm proud of my ride, it's heritage shines
I'm making power, the blower whines

Slowly she creeps from her resting place
This car is bad, smile on face

At once, life forgotten, the road screams by
Shifting at 6,000, senses on high

No other car can bring joy to a man
like the unforgettable, undying love of

MUSTANG!


what would you add or fix to this poem? Or lets hear yours!

Full moon, summer nights,
Got my Mustang, I'm alright.
Burning rubber, shifting gears,
Makes my troubles all dissapear.

Tearing up the blacktop,
dont matter where I'm going.
Whats around the curve?
Got no way of knowing.
140 mile an hour,
Running undercover.
Gotta feel the THUNDER,
Speed is like a lover.

Take it to the red line,
Like lightning I'm going.
Man I feel so wired,
Electricity is flowing.
One solid white line,
300 ponies smother.
She sounds just like THUNDER,
My Mustang, my lover.

Hmmm. I'm an old school kind of guy where poetry rhymes and iambic pentameter is the king. No free verse for me. If I get inspired anytime soon I'll add something. In the meanwhile, keep on writing and posting.

Foot to the floor
Looking for more

Blue lights in the mirror
More points on my license,I fear

Do I know how fast I was going out there?
What a stupid question
The gas was flowing
Why would I care?

Insurance? ,no matter
My wallet's been splattered

Son, quit talking
You'll soon be walking

I'll be heading home

Stepping to my Ride
Revving the engine real high

Black midnight wants to ride
heart pumping and surging with octane

Pointing her in the right direction
and letting her go

the wheels let go,
in a blaze of smoke
I can smell the steeds rubber

Leaving everyone shock,

I'll be heading home


(thought this was fun)
