Ode to the Volvo
I must express my merry content for a car that’s given me so many events
Through the smell of dog hair and that dirty sock we could never find
Every time I see your dusty exterior
I’m taken me to another time
I do complain of the smell
From the wet dog that has many a times sat in the back
On the way from the beach
However this pungent odor is not something I actually hate
Instead it’s a symbol of all the times that were great
It can be annoying when you are broken
Especially when the window wouldn’t open
But you know how much I adore
Your broken left door
These trillion thorny traits give you character
And they have never caused me pain, only laughter
It gives me strength to see how you’ve persisted
When I have tough problems to solve
I understand nothing is impossible if you can still drive unassisted
Then my predicament begins to dissolve
You have so many memories stored inside you
Carrying the monstrous christmas tree across town
Even though the christmas tree resisted
You didn’t let us down
You are a funny, quirky, sticky old car
Many say we should give you away but know I love you anyway
