Dearest Michael,

       Ode to the Bentely

  I am pleading for the manual, the Bentley one indeed
  You see, me and Stella are new at this game and the book we surely
  need
  Recently I purchased the Haynes
  To learn more about her growing pains
  It covers the basics that I should know
  But the Bentley is the way to go
  So if you find it in your heart
  And should you and the book ever part
  I would surly give it a rightful home
  So Stella and I can continue to roam

   Peace, Love,and Granola
   Kate
