Buse Poems | Examples


Premium Member Stopping for School Buses

I gave up my drivers license because of my poor eyesight,
          but after two surgeries I have my eyesight back;
so, I must take the driving test again and learn all rules,
    especially all the traffic signs and lights.

Stop, yield, no parking, no left, etc turn, school bus stops,
           the buses are in a range of sizes but are all yellow;
with SCHOOL BUS displayed, we must stop 20 meters away,
  either from the back or front and watch for kids.

Some buse have red flashing lights, some have stop sign arms,
            we must remain stopped until the the bus is finished; 
even so, be careful for children walking across the street,
   and children running and darting out suddenly.

Often there is a school bus crossing guard, with a stop sign,
             stop your car on the line, remain until everyone;
has crossed and then proceed slowly, kids are unpredictable,
    so be ready to stop your car at any moment.

End Abuse

E-nd
A-buse
R-egarding
T-he planet Earth, 
H-aving a right action on climate change.

H-ave to turn off the light, 
O-ne hour as organizers choose; 
U-nder the moon and stars, 
R-emain united to end abuse.
