To a New Friend
Shall I compare you to my driving test?
I was as nervous when I met you first.
Although you seemed to be the friendliest,
I felt awkward like I was unrehearsed.
I’d watched my mom and dad drive every day.
It seemed easy to do in the back seat.
I’d seen my siblings always find their way.
I couldn’t wait to roll around the street.
“Easier said than done,” they say; it’s true.
I felt so lost behind the leather wheel.
But practicing taught me a thing or two.
At last, I could control automobile.
It meant a lot to have my own license
but your friendship to me is more immense.
