Impala
Oh lady,
Beautiful lady
Ebony black
Lady of class
House on four wheels
Body of steel
Asphalt goddess
Sexiness gratis
Oh Lady,
Powerful Lady
Three Twenty Seven
Four Barrel Engine
Moving so quickly
Cruise at one thirty
Fuel injection
Owned competition
Oh Lady,
Graceful Lady
You roar
You purr
You sing
You soar
Dividing the night
Uniting our fight
Oh Lady,
Elegant Lady
Sixty Seven
Auto perfection
Hugging the turns
Distances burned
Polish and chrome
Winchester home
Oh Lady,
Faithful Lady
Our father’s gift
(whom we still miss)
Heads laid to rest
Weapons in chest
Forever we three,
I, he and thee.

My two favourite verses are the last two.
Now I got a question for you sweety. Why haven't we seen anything like this before? Will need more of it.
Wonderful. Feel free to allow inspiration to strike again, ((((Yvonne)))). :D, Jas
Thou art a poet
And we did not know it!
Actually that`s a lie as I knew you could write and I am so pleased you decided to share your talents with the class.
I loved this. You had to write about your passion, that beautiful car, and I also noted the `Daddy` reference in there of course.
You do realise we now expect more?
How about a poem for every character?
Congratulations on this, Love Ju
Thank you so much!
I loved it, thank-you for sharing this with us.
This is a treasure!
Interesting style, good rhyme and rhythm, nice personification, fantastic imagery, good use of assonance, relevant topic, pictures in a poem? Well, it's not typical but it's certainly innovative and very effective....
Yes, I'll give this one an A. Keep it up!
:D, Jas
Of course now you know we'll want some more don't you?
Well, because a few rhyming stanzas does not a poet make. A lost Muse gave me a passing late night whack. I’ll set a trap in hope of ambush, but not sure what I’ll catch.
@Junkerin
Happy to oblige.
@Jasminka
Thou most certainly shalt not! Unless, of course, that title comes with mounds of chocolate. Thank you for all of your encouragement. And as I said, the Muse is being Hunted in the hopes of another thump on my head.
Hm, something backwards about this.
(Oh, and you weirdo you.)
@Julie
Of course Daddy had to make an appearance! Smuggling in the John lovin.
For every character? Really? *checks Muse trap* Yaa, about that…
@dmakdavis
You are quite welcome! She is lovable isn’t she?
@Karen
Glad you enjoyed.
@Jeannine
Aww shucks, t’was nothing.
@BagginsDMV
Thanks! Now don’t go spending it all in one place.
@Bevie
Really? Thanks!
Screw the trap, I’m getting the salt gun.
@Tim the Enchanter
Oh Yay! I get an A! What fun! Can I get a smiley sticker with that Teacher?
@Dany
Little girl? Rare for me to be accused of that!
@Leslie92708
Thanks ever so much!
