My New Honda
by Helen George

Retired and in my sixties, I suddenly find,
My old Buick Skylark has begun to unwind,
She's on her last legs, it's time to trade her in,
What should replace her... where do I begin?

Many cars were looked at, more than a few,
But none were quite right, what should I do?
I went back to the Honda, 'cause I liked the CRV,
But I couldn't decide if it was right for me.

Then just before Christmas, I thought this is it,
It's the one I want, I'm going to commit,
After the paperwork, this white Honda is mine,
And I've discovered she suits me just fine!
