Sense Sonnet - Pumper

The Big Pave

Thousands of miles, decades of time,
Billions of dollars, interstate
U.S. highways became the prime
Means of making travelling great.
Multi lanes, gentle curves and grades,
Service chains to accomodate,
Signs of informational aids,
Cruising along from state to state,
Crisscrossing like a checkerboard,
The highway system did connect.
Happy would have been Henry Ford,
His model T did cause effect.

Sometimes I thought I would explode.
Dad rarely stopped, once on the road.
