Please!

A car was parked illegally;
The hydrant wasn’t cleared,
Plus it was by a nursing home
And might have interfered.

I never would have noticed it,
But signage did impart
That a tow truck would be coming
‘Cause the engine wouldn’t start.

Thee note said “Please!” perhaps to cops
Who rarely have the choice
About issuing a ticket to
A reprobate Rolls Royce!
