Crossed Roads

Renee’s thread got me thinking and apparently got quite a few others too. I was recently in a car with an elderly lady driver. She had me so concern when she tried to acknowledge while maneuvering the bend. I almost thought to suggest she forget the thank you but I am glad I didn’t. The fact is, without the considerate offers to let her out, we might have been very late arriving. If this little old lady could still manage to show her appreciation then why not all of us? I thank Renee for starting this thread and my friend for sharing it with me.  Here is an effort at Bajan

 

Crossed Roads

 

Can’t believe the gall uh she

Road block up, I leh she out and she ‘aint even notice me

One tout of de horn wuddah been good or just a wave

She just zoomed off, all manners deprave’

Sometimes I wish I could anticipate

Every disrespectful driver before it was too late

Dastardly, thoughtless or was it unskilled drivers

Road rage immerged because of we the ill fated survivors

One too many bad and impolite drivers crossed the line

And left a very crossed thoughtful driver behind

Didn’t wave, honk, tout acknowledge thanks in any way

So now the crossroads are filled with crossed drivers today
