On Safety for School Buses

Do you know why bus rules are important? We stop for school buses as they’re slowing. Their yellow lights indicate take caution. When red, the lights mean kids you may see going. They might be going on the bus or off. On two-lane roads, whether you are front or rear, you have to stop, and the reason is kids out of anywhere might appear. Children can be hard sometimes to spot. Around big yellow buses, please take care. What of those on lanes that number three or more? Those coming from the rear then must be aware. Buses have been built for children’s safety. They’re energy-absorbing, did you know?? Both economically and environmentally! School buses for our kids are the greatest way to go.

As a kindergarten teacher I can sympathize with your poem. I remember a 5 year old falling asleep in the back of the bus one day on the way home. The bus driver stopped for a coffee not checking the seats. Of course everybody got excited when this little guy didn't get home, but he had his own personal bus ride back to school. Your cute and important poem made me think of the children's song, The Wheels On The Bus. I like your writing so much

Congratulations on your win in my contest. I liked that the message was written with rhyme. School busses are the safest way for a child to go to school.

Well said! You sound as if you have done some volunteer crossing guard tours. When I was a kid the older students would be at crosswalks or buss doors to help the younger ones safely board and exit.

Just to be clear, I actually saw these things, motor vehicles had been invented already when I was a kid:)

Send this straight to the National Safety Council. Maybe they'll use it in one of their marketing campaigns!!
