Road Safety Poem
THE GREEN CROSS CODE
By Josie Whitehead
THE GREEN CROSS CODE
By Josie Whitehead
Will you accompany me today?
Let’s learn the Green Cross Code.
It’s the trendy thing to study
If you want to cross that road.
Stop your fooling! Do not talk
And let nothing you disturb.
I think we’ve found a safe place here
So we’ll stop, back from the kerb.
Oooh, don’t step off that pavement yet!
No! Don’t dash out ahead
For doing such a stupid thing
Could leave you somewhat dead!
You wait for the lights to turn green or for
the walking man to appear on the signals.
This is where your eyes come in,
And other people’s too.
It could be that you see them well,
But can they see you too?
We’ll choose a place of safety
Where our vision is quite clear.
Now don’t you venture on that road
If moving traffic’s near.
As well as eyes, you have two ears
To help you cross that road.
Did you STOP, LOOK and LISTEN?-
Let’s apply the
GREEN CROSS CODE.
