Old Scooter Poetry is a book dedicated to my husband, Jeff, and his obsession with collecting old Vespa scooters. After experiencing the replacing parts, buying, selling, and repairing old scooters year after year I finally gave in and began to enjoy his hobby. These poems are about understanding his love for Vespas and the difficulty of parting with them even when they won’t run.
