are we there yet?

don't mind me, boss
no sir- keep drivin'
I'm only spittin' out revelations
from the back seat
with my feet danglin'
out the window
as visions of sugar plums
dance through my head
I'm only singin' along
with the radio
keepin' the faith
with my eyes closed
and a smile smeared across
my face like oleo
in the fryin' pan
nevermind me- I'm only
a giddy girl
blowin' bubbles in her heart
whistlin' Gershwin in the dark
you've got the wheel
I trust you know
this road
and the weather conditions
I have no doubt
we'll get there
eventually
but I can feel
the breeze
smell
the trees
and I
can't
wait!!!!!
