My Very First Truck

Kyle Hanson
Grade 10
Roseau High School

I was so excited

I finally had my own truck.

Basically a mass of metal and steel,

I thought it was quite the deal.

It wasn't free but it was close,

It had more rust than paint.

I was only eight.

I really wanted to make it run,

I just didn't have the time.

I couldn't wait to hear

The engine roar,

And see the look on my friends faces.

When I pulled up at all the cool places,

In my very own truck.
