The issues with an old car - need to replace it - a new car purchased soon -a rhyming poem
Broken into, things were stolen -
Leaking oil, though, still rollin’.
Tons of scratches, problems, starts.
Tires punctured, labors, parts.

Many thousands, huge concerns -
A beat up junk that burns and burns.
Repaired that old car countless times,
Like the junk heaps past their primes…

Run-down gem that’s unforgettable.
Humbling science, most regrettable.
Soon a new one - must afford it.
Absolutely - saving towards it.

A nice tin can that’s run its course;
Insurance moneys are the source!
A basket case that’s gone tomorrow.
Long live girth, a budding sorrow.

Brand new car - it’s some new claim;
Someone struck me, they’re to blame…
Got the blue book value for it…
Little discourse - where to store it… 

Deal a hand for saints and friends…
An older car that somehow ends.
Shuffling cards within the deck.
A jab at this elusive trek…

Vehemently standing firm -
A bridge to heaven, now long term -
New, not used, like past forays…
Nothing cute, just new hoorays…
