Out in the yard
under the shade of a maple tree,
lies an old wagon.
Rusted red and missing
a wheel.
It once saw
street races,
construction jobs,
and even a hole to China.
It was an integral part
in many grand schemes
and transported all manor
of interesting persons.
It once trucked astronauts
to planet Gazool;
ferried great explorers
across mighty rivers;
carried gallant warriors into battle
and brought the wounded to safety.
Trigger happy cowboys
rode after fleeing Indians
upon its back.
And once, it stole away
King Kong
from his home on Skull Island
all the way to New York City.
But nowadays,
it doesn't do much
but sit rusted in the shade
of an old maple tree,
waiting for its next adventure.
