The old car sat
rusting under
some tall oak trees
The Chevrolet emblem
could still be seen
across the front
It had to be at least
50 years since
it was on the highway
Ghost riders appeared
on autumn nights
and took this baby for a spin
Children in the neighborhood
testified to that
A pretty lady with
her kerchief blowing
in the wind was often
the driver
She liked to push the
gas pedal to the floor
and race past the
other cars on the road
Sometimes a thin man
in a business suit
would get behind
the wheel and
off to his office
he would go
The Chevy must have
been brand new
back then and something
to see
Shiny hub caps
and white wall tires
Plus fins in the back
to add class and
help with aerodynamics
But now she sat
slowly rotting
only moving in
the imagination of
some 10 year olds
