It's difficult finding interesting pictures for the challenge, but have a go at either or both of these. Perhaps a theme is ...

Dont drive drunk
Or else your sunk

But any poem is fine... thanks Steve.

My cars all have tended to serve
for nothing but hurting much verve.
I turn an ignition
and thus find perdition --
the sort that could cause you to swerve.

Shocked

Ten thousand green bottles
Strewn across the road
Ten thousand green bottles
Strewn across the road
And if one beer lorry
Should crash and shed its load
Then that’s one carriageway
Accidentally closed

Strewing the tarmac
green crates spewing
glass shattered on the road
Annoyed cars unable to pass

A wilderness of debris
viewed from afar
by drivers leaving their cars
to discover why

their journey was halted
yet in that time where
purpose was diffused
on the surface

perhaps those bonds
formed in mishaps
meant broken glass
seemed heaven sent.

"Sorry," said the man
who drove the lorry
whose crates fell off
Who had some time to muse.

Thankyou Bruce and Jo for having a go at the picture challenge.
Not always an easy one, I think we all chickened out of the sunken boat lol.

I shall try and find one for this month. Wink
