I guess you are probably thinking a motivating tail
Not so in this trail
The title alone says like a surprise
But wait, there will be a realize
This story involves the French car Citroen
My grandfather purchased one then later another
But the design was not like any other
The first Citroen was a Four Door Car, it was small, but engineered ahead of its time by being the best in the land
You didn’t use a key to start, but pushed a button
However, there was a waiting period as you had to wait for the back of the car to rise
I know you are surprised
It would sometimes be a moment then once the back of the car rose, you were able to move
Yet later as the Citroen would move, and the back would drop, however, the ride would be smooth
But it doesn’t stop there
My Grandfather sold the 4 Door sedan for a Citroen Station Wagon
It had the same concept, but only longer, but still having a later departure
As we were riding the Citroen station wagon home, the left wheel started to shake and suddenly the side of the car just dropped to the ground
So now we were nowhere bound
It was later determined, the Citroen was going to be history, and another car would be purchased
As the conversation went on, my Grandmother told my Grandfather to buy a car that you get in and go
Now do you follow my flow?
Start then go far
That my Grandfather did
There wasn’t any hid
Well the story concludes
I hope you were enthused
A French car having a tail
Let the French continue to prevail.
