Signage Future
Those ugly signs along the way,
On walls, or swaying on a stem.
They direct our lives day by day.
How nice it would be to change them.
'T would be much more considerate,
To me, much more on the mark,
To behold signs more literate;
Consider: Never Never Park.
Whether in Wales, Vail or at Yale,
To have signage viewed more an art;
Perhaps: Smoke, But Thou Shan't Exhale;
Or: Loiter, Only In Thine Heart.
But one for which I yearn the most,
Around road construction, for sure,
Orange arrows with more a boast,
Those arrows to announce: Free Tour.
