Getting that truck out of the "thick of things" would be similar to taking a break from traffic.

Your sentiment from the poem carries on.

Well done, Bill.

This old truck looks well and truly retired but someone might restore it to its former glory as your poem promises here Bill, I enjoyed the sentiment, love Dolly x

That's a fun picture to illustrate this poem. With that classic truck taking a break among the fireweed, I think it should really be relaxed. But I wonder if it will get back on the road?

    Sometimes a break is just the beginning of broken down.

Man oh man, I would love to see that beauty fully restored. I would be so proud to be seen in that. I cannot believe that it was allowed to get in that condition in the first place. That is a classic beauty.

    The lady who took the picture says it's her father's old dairy farm truck.

This is very Clever with the old truck covered in vines no other vehicles to be seen back on the road soon I very much enjoyed that thank you for the smile!
This is a really good palm and a contender for the win I'm sure.
I can find no issues or anything that needs correctly in your poem and you've adhered greatly to the contest regulations. I'm sure you'll do great have a good evening!

I love the picture you have chosen and your words say it all. What stories these abandoned vehicles could tell. The vehicle I drive is 20 years old and I wonder if it will someday end up in a field somewhere.

    I used to sit in these kinds of cars as a kid, in the city dump. Thanks for looking in, Anne.

This is delightful. It made me smile and lifted my spirits, I needed that. I think taking a break from traffic sounds awesome, but the need to drive remains. I hope my old van doesn't mind.
