Country Detour
© Mary Nida Smith
The poor sap wasn’t mature
for being a chauffeur.
He was a city guy.
Country roads were a bore.
This wasn’t a tour.
He didn’t expect a detour
in a roundabout way
up and down country roads.
He and his passenger were unsure
they would get beyond the detour
Zigzagging over county roads
that never appeared to end.
