Red lights and stop signs,
Get in our way.
It’s true they protect us,
But they do cause delay.
Life offers red lights,
Stop signs and road blocks.
Dead ends and potholes,
Life’s sometimes a bit much.
In life as in driving,
Red lights, they protect us.
And a dead end may stop us,
From something that wrecks us.
Honor the speed limit,
And reach a full stop.
Crashes can happen,
If you don’t observe laws.
Learn to be patient.
Life has its own pace.
Patient with yourself,
Life’s not a street race.
