My Car - a Poem for dVerse Quadrille

Mustang Music
We go purring down the road
That's me and my Mustang
Mustang's a classic this year
Born Nineteen-ninety-eight 18
Sings sixties and seventies
Classic rock she does choose
Music to our ears she purrs
Top down and throttle too 20
Dylan, Beatles, ZZTop,
More, bellowing non-stop 6
44 Words

- Linda's request is that our quadrille should be exactly 44 words, not including the title and include the word “Music” or a derivative of the word.
- To read our group's efforts, go here,
- The car had 49K miles when I got it, now has 106K. The mirrors vibrate with classic rock music playing very loud.

The best kind of music to have in a car, Jim!
Beautiful poem and a fantastic car! When my husband and I got married, we drove away in his white 1964 Mustang.
That is damned beautiful Jim, great ride! I like the way you use the speeds in your poem well written.
Excellent, Jim. I have to wonder what else we share a taste in. :-)
Definitely classic :) (AJ)
Music and cars move in tandem...
Jim, they used to build cars with real character -- and affordable! Mustang was one of my favorites back in the day. So cool you have one. Neat Q.
As a car-free person, I LOVE this insight into why people cling to their cars.
I don't know, I just never have bonded with one.
