Poetry: Story poem, about a vehicle that gives up the ghost, when it is needed most.

I came home broken and busted up
I damned that old pickup truck
 
To hell and back with every step I took

I lost a another battle with it
 At the worst of times

It sits sunning itself down the road
And it refuses to start again on this day

As I entered the long drawn out dirt driveway
I was completely down hearted, I felt I had lost my way

Until I see them, standing there and in a row
 Arms flung wide open, hugs and tears bless my soul
 
Sobbing and kissing, by heck
Arms all around and about my neck

 My Sweet Pea and Honey bee’s

They cheer me on every time
 Come on Daddy

Get that old thing started
We must be to church on time

Grammy’s there, she’s waiting
She has got her new dress on

She’ll be upset with us
If we are late this time

No, my dears, we won’t be late
Grandma, she will wait for us

Even if, it is only at Heaven’s pearly gates
