since ya left me gal
ah tried
ta flush yer memory,
frum the
transmission
of ma broken heart---
``
in this "JIFFY-LUBE" station
a loneliness ah stand,
but the dipstick
uv are luv
jest keeps a readin'
thet we'ze
still a quart low--
``
Ah still see'ze yer
purdy face;
yer still there,
like thet
squashed butterfly
thet ma wipers
jest cain't seem
ta remove cumpletely--
``
this pickup truck a luv
thet we once knowed
'afore ya
split on me babe,
still needs
a jumpstart ev're day--
``
When ah turn on ma
hearts air cunditioner;
the Pine-Tree
air refresher,
hangin' on ma
rearview mirror
of life, jiggles vigressly
an' always reminds me, a you~

Dear Thad. What a heartbreak tale of misery. Excuse me for smiling. I guess I have a warped sense of humour. You know us Brits do know how to laugh. That flushing of her memory did make my lips turn upwards while they turned down again at the mention of a squashed butterfly. Thank you dear Thad for an entertaining read. Have yerself a great day:) I enjoyed my visit.
Good day Cassie!! 🌞☺️ 🌻

the poor butterfly reference🦋 too. 🥴

Yer havin' way, way too mutch fun makin' light over heartbreak, ya are. Tis unfergivible, I tell ya. Gonna string yas up an' pelt ya wif me's scarves ta let ya knows tis downright unfergivible it is.
So, I is truly sniffling cuz of frequent crying bouts and me is NOT happy, but I's glad to see yer havin' fun wi'out me.
Beautifully rendered with excellent humor and good dialect, not to mention a teasing bit of poignancy flirting about. Thank you for sharing.

redneck slang! 😳☺️

G’day Thad.
I think I’m about to opt out of today’s discussion. I believe Missy (above) has, in response to your problem, comprehensively covered your issues and in a way I could never hope to achieve (the vernacular ah do believe).
I am however a little concerned that you may get behind the wheel in a highly emotional state……
Brilliant use of metaphor (which I don’t understand….)
Howdy Dave!! 🐶 🐕 👋
Thanks for commending
me on my 'brilliant' use
of metaphor, even though
you ain't into that kinda
poetry!! 🤔🤣
Great a hearing from ya!! 😄
Best regards ✌️ Thad
We get such fond memories from so many strange things Thad. Fine words.
Andy
