So Many

So many cars go by,
So many,
Many cars go by.
Going?
Coming?
Do the cars know whether
they are coming or going?
Do the drivers know?
These drivers who ask,
"Where have all the
flowers gone?"
I know where all
the flowers have gone.
They have gone to
all the drivers who
do not know
the color of their
neighbor's house.
