Whilst wishing our Sponsors here a Happy Easter, would all Forumites please take care on the road on this the Holiday Season, so that they can all continue to be with us.
C R O S S E S
Where ere you drive, by night or day
You'll see the Crosses stark,
Where loved ones bled their lives away
Before they faced the dark.
Some drank and drove and some were caught
By speed, that filthy thief
Who didn't care what tears he brought
To relatives in grief.
The mothers who have lived distressed
The fathers left distraught,
Remember well how they were bless'd
Before all came to naught.
How often must we Crosses see,
Just watch them multiply?
Without our thinking 'you or me'
Will we be next to die?
The message sinks so slowly in,
How can we be so dense?
Our hurtling chariots of tin
Just will not jump a fence!
Please let us all be resolute,
Acknowledge this dread load.
The speed and drinking of our youth,
Whilst Crosses line each road.
