A little tractor ride

A little tractor ride

A Poem by unclecharlie

Decided to take my tractor for a spin

What a ride and where do I begin

Tried to take off in 4th gear high

It wouldn't go no matter how hard I'd try

Next I went for 3rd gear low

The damn thing still wouldn't go

I hadn't drove a tractor in many a year

And it sure wasn't working like my old John Deere

Now finally on the road and moving along just fine

But behind me there was one hell of a line

Most really didn't seem to care

Others shook their heads and gave an evil stare

My little adventure last just a bit

15 miles is how far I needed to get

Started off on nothing more then sand and dirt

Then hit pavement and my a*s started to hurt

But I smiled and waved at everyone that passed

At no time was my tractor out classed

Now home my hands a little bit cold

But I have this little story that to you I've told

So if you ever want just few miles of fun

Get on the tractor that is if you have one

The ride may be a little bit rough

But everyone's waves and smiles will be enough

To make you once again feel young at heart

So go ahead give that tractor a start!
