Ode to Speed Racer
I was four nothing more
Than a girl who loved to draw
Bored with a life that ended
At my front door
Gallantly you opened a door
Swashbuckler boy
The cutest one
Jewel-eyed blue eye
Wanted to be your pit crew
Ascot and all
I could be a mascot
I could be you too.
Eames-era dreamer
Love at first sight
A Googie-eyed Pygmalion
You were my Galatea
Forever I will adore
By now you’re 54
You will live forever
And I will die an old bore
My love to you Speed
The wind in your hair
The Mach 5 on a tear
On an endless road to anywhere.
Love and Kisses,
K.
P.S. please take me with you……..
