What A Great Relief!(an Ode To The Motor Car)
« on: October 02, 2006, 11:47 PM »

As old as my grandmother is
Yet daily marathons she still runneth
Ay,even faster than a sprinter she goeth
Just like a boomerang she is gone and back

Though weightier than the beasts of burden it is
Faster than the cheetah it still runneth
Though more load than the beasts of burden it bveareth
Nay,never is its great swuiftness hampered

What a great relief to man from trekkng miles
Greatly reduced is the burden on camels and donkeys
And no more of our dicing with death on water
For an alternative hath unto mankind cometh

Forever shall mankind hail his great name
The Carl Benz of the car invention fame.
