My First Ticket
Speeding down the road
Feeling lost in a song
Seen the blue lights flashing
I knew something was wrong
Feeling lost in a song
Seen the blue lights flashing
I knew something was wrong
So as I pulled over
And I started to worry
My anxiety kicked in
Things became blurry
Trying to remain calm
As the window went down
He said good morning
I looked up with a frown
Informed me I was speeding
Which I already knew
Gathered my information
Back to his car to review
I am watching the clock
Don't really want to wait
He is taking forever
And I'm already late
Comes back with my ticket
Says have a nice day
Ruined my clean record
I sadly drive away

Your poem does an excellent job of capturing the sinking feeling of that first speeding ticket.
Good poem! Sorry to hear about your ticket!
I've never had a ticket for a moving violation and I've been driving for about 30 years. My insurence premiums run about $100.00 for liability for every six months. It pays to slow down.
i haven't got one in a while but boy do i remember. on my way to the beach in long island doing 85 in a 35.....that was my first and last
Bummer isn't it?
It happens to the best of us. Welcome aboard!
to bad you got pulled over, but at least you made a great poem from it.
Oh, NO! I hate seeing those flashing lights in the rear view mirror! Sorry for you. :)
It could happen to any of us. Great poem.
