Pearl Made Diamond

I was in a really bad car accident the end of September and ended up having to part ways with my car who I named Pearl, a white Honda CR-V.  I had been through so many things with Pearl and was really upset she was a total loss, but thankful that she spared my life at the same time.  Then miraculously, a new silver Acura MDX was born and given to me as a blessing which lifted my spirits, she was my new shimmering star, what a jewel, so I named her Diamond.  So, me being a poet, I wrote a short poem about it, like to hear it, hear it go...

Pearl Made Diamond

Who woulda thought such an ivory ebony mix would mesh for miles so far ahead

After sighting love instantaneously on the same lot where we thee wed

She led every route we took

My safety she never forsook

She trekked through fatal ditches, craning through rough edged nooks

Criss crossing state lines, tic tac toe x’ing each curve every time, burning tread like Foreman, mean with a lean rolled smooth, fresh look

Till that 7^th year she was laid to rest

I tried my best to not fret as I paid my last respects

The perfect harmonies of our lives no longer side by side

Being forced to say good-bye without not even having one last final ride

My Ivory named Pearl, she had to forever leave me

No longer uniting chords like McCartney and Stevie

But the old sung tunes in the clashed chords made a perfect pitch

When Diamond and I collaborated to sound a new melody over-toned in silver, shimmering rich

So although I loved my sheik of Pearl whose loss bred whining

I’m at peace with refining my Pearl who gave birth to a Diamond
