The End Is Near

A warning unwisely ignored. Humor poem.

The End is Near

 

By Elton Camp

 

Hurricane Irene had done all type of harm

What he saw gave a man extreme alarm

 

People passing, he really wanted to save

So with a sign at the road, a warning gave

 

He yelled,  “Know now that the end is near.

Turn around and then you needn’t fear.”

 

A driver honked and gave an ugly sneer

“Man, a nut like you I sure won’t hear.”

 

And the curve he accelerated right around

The man then heard a loud splashing sound

 

The effectiveness of his sign he began to doubt

“Maybe I should have just written, “Bridge out.”
