With Apologies to Robert Frost
I don't quite recognize it though
because it's kinda camouflaged
beneath a pile of snow.
.. .
My little car must think it queer
To not be in the garage I fear
But outside by the frozen lake
the coldest evening of the year.
It doesn't like the snow I take
it knows it's all a big mistake
and feels the fierce cold wind
and drifting downy flakes.
It doesn't know about the truck
about to tow it through the muck
of melted snow and frozen yuck,
and miles it just won't go which sucks
and miles it just won't go which sucks. .

Very droll.
Very good.
The snow is lovely, dark and deep, but my little horn won't even beep, and the garage man my car will keep, the garage man my car will keep.
Good poem about your car.
