Daisy

I'm old and tired. I live out of doors all the time, longing for a home. I show the wear and tear of generations gone by and a life well lived. a young whipper snapper came along, scooped me up and promised me some youth and excitement again and though it seems to be taking him a long time to get that dream together. I sit here waiting for him to come through for me. He'll do it I know. He saw me in my tired state and saw potential. Someday I'll fly again . On the open road and I'll scream for joy. Living again in a Frankenstein type existence. More powerful than ever and with better capabilities than I had to begin with. But for now I wait for that day to come the parts to come together and make the magic happen. With a lot of hard work and a little luck they will.

  2. She's already had the most important change she's had a recreation of her engine. If the insides are changed for the better the rest will come along in time. It is a parable in iron and grease. I like it.

  3. You have a very strong voice. I really enjoyed this piece!

    I was stopping by in search of the blog fest (Guess that Character) you were on the list of participants and since I was hosting I wanted to make sure you were involved! I'll be back later to see if you are a late poster :)
