Ode to my Smarty Car

You and I had a lot of fun
Cruising down to the beach
The radio blasting; singing to the songs
Racing back from work
Such a little engine; speedy all the same
You got me around; helped me find the way
Steady and strong; even at 120 kilometres
Your seats kept me warm on cold days
Your clear roof let the sunshine flow in
I fed you the best fuel; for you were mine
Always I could count on you
To keep me dry in the rain
To keep me cool on hot summer days
You were truly good to me
I will always regret what that pole did to you
You didn’t deserve that; just a baby still
Your life with me was short indeed
Yet I’ll always remember you
As the little car that could
