I got in the car,
backed out of the garage,
drove up the drive.
The player was pumping out
Miles Davis *On The Corner.*
Picked up my wife
at the front door.
She started in to tell me
how to drive,
where to turn,
*slow down!, don't play*
*that music so loud!*
I ejected Miles
and played *Spanish Guitar.*
She said,* Who's that?*
I said, *John Williams*.
She said, *Segovia is better.*
I hit a speed hump.
She said*, Slow down.*
I said, *Don't repeat yourself,*
and drove into the carpark
to park in an easy bay.
She said, *There's shade*
*over there. Why didn't you*
*park in the shade over there?
*
I said, *So you wouldn't have to*
*walk so far, dear.* She huffed,
then said *Thank you*
ever so quietly.
