Amber lights what do they do <br />Will drivers ever know? <br />Not many think they mean to stop <br />Most think they mean to go <br /> <br />When traffic lights start changing <br />From red the engines roar <br />A little amber twinkle <br />Make them rev their engines more <br /> <br />Cars shoot off like missiles <br />They seem to go ballistic <br />How could they know the road is clear? <br />Have they fitted in-car mystic? <br /> <br />On the other side the lights now change <br />To the amber from the green <br />It’s an automatic speed increase <br />They pretend they haven’t seen <br /> <br />On the gridlines in the middle <br />Metal piles up what a shambles <br />It happens when your luck runs out <br />If you’re taking amber gambles <br /> <br /> <br />© 2008 David Threadgold <br />Rambling Riddles & Rhymes<br /><br />David Threadgold www.davidthreadgold.com<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/5-amber-what/
