There is a strong sentimental attachment br to an old dark blue pickup with pin stripping br Hadn't driven it in years…its tires were loosing air br Intentions of getting it road worthy were slipping br br A neighbor spied it … asking if it was for sale br Saying he needed something like it for hauling br With a sigh… I relinquished my keepsake affection br With a boost… it sputtered… then purred without stalling br br Too late to reconsider and backing out of the deal... br Giving a gentle pat to the shinny chrome bumper br I lovingly said, 'Take care of the ol' girl...
