Stop Sign

If stop signs were to come from nature...

Would they be yellow instead of red

Have green leaves and stems

Would the letters be as curly

As leaves on the ground in the middle of the fall

Ah. If only this were true

For then they would be symbols

Symbols to let us know that mother earth lives

That mother earth gives us what we need

Warning us to STOP our ways of polluting

To care for in her time of distress

But this is not so my friends

If stop signs where to have come from nature.....

Wrote this when I was outside sketching random things. It simply popped into my head.
