Your voice
Suck, squeeze, bang, blow, brapp!
Moving parts, given a voice
That I hear in spring
A voice I have known
Over kilometers and years
Fast, slow, in all gears
I hear you old friend
Like the voice of a loved one
But just moving parts
An impressive array
Carburetor, spark plug, valve, piston
Coordinated
Into a set of sounds
My ears interpret with joy
I hear you old friend
You may not be alive
But your sound gives you lifelike
Reality to me
I've known many motors
But only one sounds like my friend
Mechanical voice
Made of moving parts
I'm so glad you run again
I hear my old friend
