Select All Images with Traffic Lights

 

When the ink on his Gospel had barely dried

Saint Matthew was interrupted by angelic sights

And then to him a Voice from Heaven cried:

“Select all images with traffic lights!”

 

Old William Shakespeare was a poetic bloke

Who wrote his metered verse within the lines

But his editor demanded, with a voice that broke:

“Select all images with highway signs!”

 

So if, dear reader, you wish to have your say -

Forget it; you won’t pass the test anyway
