Is there no end to your flexibility, your talent as a writer and poet? This is superb, Yvette. I adore it! Not only does it bring me back, it evokes the most pleasant of images!

    You, O Lady of the North, are going to give me a 'big head' with such flattery... :) :) But I shall not complain, I promise!! ;) ;) So glad, Dawn, that you enjoyed this crazy thing....as I said to L-M in my author notes, I will leave these to others as I do not have the patience for these on a regular basis...once in a while, maybe...LOL! ;) ;) Thank you for those lovely stars and your 'always' support - you ROCK! :) ;) Yvette

Wow! And again wow! How did you manage this? It's so very cute.
The poem itself is great as well. It shows you loved that car...
Thanks so much for sharing. You made me smile.

A very well-written shape poem. My very first car was a 1966 VW beetle a blood red monster that eats the kilometers wherever I go with her, she never let me stand along the road.

I've only owned one Volkswagen, the old beetle shape, I traded it for part of buying a business, some forty years ago, it made me very sad at the time, so I understand. A very innovative post Dear Yvette, one could classify it as a shape poem, well done, my friend, blessings, Roy

Very creative the way you shaped the poem. In Australia they were called VDub's. They were an amazing little car with a well won reputation for their reliability. I think I only ever once rode in one.
I had a VV, that was a Vauxhall Viva. Not quite a beetle, but it got me around.

Your poem was clever in the way it rhymed.

Again I relate my first car, a VW beetle 1957 model, great for all your wonderful words describe, ( no good for dates at the drive-in) although there was no where to go!, how did you get this work to look like a car, or for that matter any design? how clever are you, ( that's jealousy speaking) very well done, great presentation ****kahpot

    Honestly? I sketched a quick outline on a piece of paper and fit words/phrases to fit my 'outline'....then I put it into my word processor and made adjustments before transferring to the website... :) ;) I'm so glad you enjoyed it -- you should give it a try!! ;) ;) Thanx so much for the wonderful review, ma'am!! :) Have a great weekend!! ;) ;) Yvette

It's clever, skillfully-written, in great form, and entertaining. Impressive

Super job with the shape poem, Yvette! I saw the car shape right away (as I'm on my laptop at home and not using my cell phone which ruined even short poem shapes! Your poem gave me a feel for your adventurous spirit during your teen years!
