To A Blond



On Seeing One In A Black Jeep Grand Cherokee

 

I see you, in your Grand Cherokee,

as you look at me (suspiciously) in my Jeep.

Or perhaps it's the Jeep that you look at,

orange, with large tires

and the word "Mountain" on its side.

I see you look, just as you accelerate

away from the stop sign, in the other lane.

I see you and try to wave, and then you're past.

Did you see? Did you realize that I accepted your Jeep

as valid, as worthy of respect as a Jeep?

Or was it too fast? Did you slip past without noticing?

 

I see you, in your Grand Cherokee,

and know your comfort. And why not?

My son owned one, for a while, and I knew its comfort,

and its perks. Do you wonder if a JK can be so?

It is, and more. Its comfort, its room, its abilities:

to go where I want to go, do what I want to do.

I see you, then I don't. And I'm not sure.

Do I know you in another form (or forum)?

Are you a member of the Offroad Passport Community?

And did you try to recognize me by my Jeep,

Looking for an emblem on the side?

 

I see you, in your Grand Cherokee,

and wonder what you saw, and what you surmised.

And wonder if you are who I think you are.

And can only quote that oft repeated phrase

the source of which most people don't know:

"O wad some Power the giftie gie us

To see oursels as ithers see us!

It wad frae mony a blunder free us,

An' foolish notion:

What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us,

An' ev'n devotion!"

 

With apologies to Robert Burns and his poem:

To A Louse

On Seeing One On A Lady's Bonnet, At Church

 

:D >WAVE<

Well, that left out MY guess. LOL Now I'm REALLY curious.

Actually, I'm not sure I've seen it. And I honestly couldn't remember what-all vehicles you had. Plus, going opposite directions on Fountain Hills Blvd, even at a stop sign, one doesn't always have time to get very specific in observation.

 

Isn't it enough that I at least thought of you, first? :crying::pray:

Okay I confess I was the blond he must have seen... oh wait, no CG here either.

But I have seen your JK around town.
