Driving home in the dark
in the rain
the car sped past us
weaving between lanes.
Almost hit the guard rails
two, three times.
too fast for conditions
ignoring white lines.
Not wanting to see or be
a fiery crash,
We pulled way back–
watched brake lights flash.
He disappeared in the dark
we saw no trace
of ambulance or car wreck
or police chase.
Driving rain transformed to a gentle fog
with misty, eerie light,
home was a mystery novel–
It was a dark and stormy night…
I hope the other car was safely home too…
Gratitude for traveling mercies.

Makes one wonder what they were thinking? Maybe DUI or texting? Always nice to be at home on a stormy night.

We thought it looked like a DUI. They swerved way too many times to just be texting. We were glad to get home!

Well it was just kind of a brainstorm as we were watching the tail lights and brake lights come on in front of us. And it’s so gray and cold here right now, I was unsure if any pops of color would show up the next day!
