A very well-written poem about an extraordinary photo taken of a truck with a mask. Like it us preventing the spread of the virus with humans all along.

    Thank you, Kahpot. I'm so glad you like it. My husband supplied the information about the hemi and JJ's Old Heavy.

I enjoyed this so much and especially liked the picture. You have to have a sense of humor to get through these "virus" days, and your poem helps
alleviate the worries.
Rhyme and meter are crafted well.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Sam. This is hilarious. I laughed when I saw the picture and I laughed harder when I read the poem. It is a vey well constructed 8/8/8/8 with even meter and great rhyme.

Good luck in the contest.

That is a fun poem, Sam! And the picture is perfect! Love the rhythm and rhyme. Disguise and passerby works for me! May not for others! It's good to just have fun and enjoy. I hope you have a lovely Easter Day! Stay well!

Very well written! And that is one amazing photo. Whoever thought of putting a giant mask on a truck, has a fantastic sense of humor -- it's what we all need right now! But what's that on the windshield -- an eye patch, lol?
You did so well with the poem, in its creative content, rhyme and meter. It just happened to be the same make and model as the one from the "Street Outlaws: Memphis" TV show? That's incredible!
Great job with this!

I think you can add this poem and the picture to the Corona virus, pandemic collection. I think when this is over, somebody should create a history of everything that was created during the pandemic :"I thought they had forgotten me,
Was left to rot beside a tree.
New hope I found the other day,
They made a mask for my display.
"
Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.
