Drive Safe

People in a hurry. Just can't wait
Leave earlier or just be late.
Passing on double yellow lines.
Running stop signs while texting 
on the phone. That's just wrong.

Speeding down the highway
while cutting people off.
Horns blowing, temperatures
rise. I can't believe my eyes. All
these lives at risk everyday. 

Take it easy. Obey the law. 
Pull over and park to make
that call. It's not worth losing
a life or paying a fine. Be
thoughtful, careful and kind.

Drive Safe

What sage advice. It is really disheartening to see how reckless people can be. Thanks for your visit to my POTW poem. Blessings.
