Dear Yellow Car,

26 9 2
                                    

When anyone asks me my favourite colour
I always say yellow !
And when they ask me why ?
I always say "I don't know "

But maybe, I know
It is because yellow is you
Yellow is the happiness,
You have given since you were new

On our first long drive,
I saw the raindrops race
On our last long drive,
The window reflects my teary face

Now everyone is saying
"It is just an object, let it go''
But it is so hard to leave you
When you always took me home

12 years ago, I believed that
You and me, chased the moon
At the first step of adulthood, I learnt
Some things leave too soon

So when I buy my car
Maybe, ten or so years later
It will be yellow, just like you
It maybe costlier, but never better

You will always be our first car
Always the best, in my heart
But I must "let you go",
To a new family, to a new start
-Sai
