SUDDEN KNOWLEDGE

SUDDEN KNOWLEDGE…!

Finished his drive into work,

Shuddering at his desk…

Of his snowy commutes

This was one of his best.

Heavy traffic and slushy highways

He better time by far…

Not fear-laden as other times,

Driving this newer car!

CHEVY IMPALAS he’d trusted before,

The SATURN turned out rather small…

Other than his normal watchfulness

He hadn’t  worried at all.

THE NUT TOOTED!

THE NUT TOOTS!

His wife saw the tension

Of the close-by traffic dimension…

Then he heard a train–

Honked back a refrain,

Relaxed so completely to mention!

She wore her engineer’s cap,

On the side he saw a train through the gap…

‘Tween truck and car

Traveling fast and far,

Then he escaped the traffic trap.
