The traffic crawled - a tale of our time ?
Poem, submitted by Alan Major
The traffic crawled slowly at ten miles an hour
And sometimes it stopped altogether
And the sun it beat down with no sign of a shower
With tempers all hot as the weather
Well could it be road works? Or temporary lights
That held up the traffic so bad
Our maybe a caravan out of their sight
But frustration was making them mad
And the traffic queue up ahead round the bend
And behind them they hooted and flashed
And their tempers boiled over , again and again
As their fists on their steering wheels smashed
And they crawled, hooting, flashing, oh what a to do
They’d forgotten the countryside factor
Yes, but I were alright at the front of the queue
As I headed for home on me tractor !!!
It's not always our fault
