RADIO DRIVING

i'm driving to the radio

it's sometimes fast and sometimes slow

i tend to let its tempo set my pace

sometimes i'll hear my favorite song

and i'll conspire to sing along

that's when a smile appears upon my face

i tap a rhythm on the wheel

the bass a-thumpin' with my heel

a taradiddle right before the turn

creating my own symphony

though some might say, cacophony

but what the heck, there's always time to learn

if broken, is my radio

i guess i'll have to wing it though

my mood will pick the rhythm and the rhyme

i'll turn that volume up to ten

pretend that i'm a teen again

when driving was a novelty, sublime

Yes, it can be very relaxing listening, sometimes invigorating (so I don'0t fall asleep)...

Nice poem (rhyhthm & rhyme)!

I agree with Terry. Should the last line be 'with (when) driving was a novelty, sublime'?
