15 Minutes MAG

I saw a commercial on the TV.
For “Car Insurance” the gecko said to me.
He assured me there was nothing to it.
It's so easy a caveman can do it!
It was easy! Not how other insurances are just a big Riddle.
Did I save money? Can Charlie Daniels play a mean fiddle?
BAM! I crashed, crippling two cars.
Like when Elmer Fudd has trouble saying his “R's.”
They fixed up my car, now I'm roaming free!
I always feel like somebody's watching me.
Now I drive with full reassurance.
15 minutes saved me 15% and more on car insurance.

I really like Geico commercials, so I wrote a poem about it.

&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;

I thought this was an amazingly cute poem. Great job! I liked the rhymes and, personally, I enjoyed the rythm. It helps if you read it aloud. Great job!
