Car wheels
Whistle and spit
While wet in the rain
Sounds slush and puddle
Whrrrrrrr
From off in the distance
Past our open window
And off again
Whrrrrrr’ing
As if the r’s
Grew smaller size
Softer, more quiet
Until silent
Farther off
Car wheels
Whistle and spit
While wet in the rain
Sounds slush and puddle
Whrrrrrrr
From off in the distance
Past our open window
And off again
Whrrrrrr’ing
As if the r’s
Grew smaller size
Softer, more quiet
Until silent
Farther off
