Sign for All Seasons

Within the frozen Park today,
A ”caution” sign was half-witted.
Warning of ice was quite OK.
Why “No BBQs permitted”?

Please those on duty another day,
Before warnings are transmitted,
By signs or any other way,
Use words that are better fitted.
Philip Wright, January 2010

Grill the frozen fingers?

I have a sign to warn of ice
Because to fall would not be nice
Oh where to put it, what to do
Oh here's a sign, No BBQ

On which I'll mount it, by the gate
Not centred, quite deliberate.
It may bemuse, it may well rile?
I hope, at least, it made you smile.
replies Jerry Birtles, Park Manager
