LOL A peanut indeed!
I love you description of a smashed vehicle.
Drinking years ago was pretty common, I think everyone I knew would drink and drive. Thankfully we are more aware of its consequences these days.
Great little limmerick
kind regards Trimple:)

fun read. Robin :)

Comment from Joannforsberg
Well not many of us could cast a stone from the seventies about drinking and driving. It was so common. Officers even let underage drinking's to just dump it out and go home. Nice poem. JO

That is really fun after I knew everyone was okay and it has the truth and a story behind it. I love that and that you really went through this crazy story and it still has some what good memories. Love the point..

Comment from yonashalom
Yeah, this was probably before the days of MADD, mother against drunk drivers. Funny poem and not so funny, I guess. Brings back memories of old days. The picture really adds to this poem. Nice descriptions, form, and rhymes.

Awesome when we learn from just one mistake, eh? :) Sometimes it takes several stumbles before we straighten out. Good for you. ~Yona

I have review a few Limerick poem and this is the second one today. The first one was about how a six-pack beer cans becoming three on arriving at his friend's house and his friend was just going out on the way to the bar to meet him.
Your limerick of a van that turned peanut and not turtle is funny too. I guess old cars and vans will be on our minds after so many years driving them.
Btw, 'MaryAnnMcP' also wrote on her old car. Maybe I will try a limerick too on 'languages' like the British Drama "Watch Your Language". Thanks for sharing. Enjoy the read and the humor.
Cheerio, Ritchie.

Thanks much Ritchie, I was inspired by Robin Gilmor's poem about her 89 Mercedes Gold 560 SL

I think we should get this old antique junk and take it for a ride. Cheerio, Rithcie.

peanut. Lucky to you found a sucker to buy it!!!

Those were some interesting times. Had a friend with a TR3, we'd take it out and try to get it around a corner on two wheels. Never could. It just hugged the turns.

That was an amazing little car. We used to race thru the toll booth on the CT turnpike, throw the toll in pennies in the basket, and race through. We set off every siren and flashing light. Fun!
