You might call me a malcontent
and you might be right
but when I see all your signs
it makes me want to fight
why can’t I go on the grass
why do I have to stop
why are you always closed
when I try to visit your shop
back in five minutes
doesn’t help me now
and have a nice day
just provokes somehow
so I ask for one small favor
if you’d be so kind
please just put your signs away
so I don’t lose my mind

The “have a nice day” is rather annoying like another thing the sign is telling me to do.

Lol. Yeah, I think it is a bit more genuine if it actually comes from a person. 🙂

Lol. Yeah, like places that have signs on top of signs. Does the one on top win? It sort of becomes more like word art. 🙂

First of all, I love the poem and the little dog clip! Second, I wanted to mention a sign that drives me crazy, perhaps it bugs you, too. It’s when a shop has a sign that says “Shut” instead of “Closed.” It just seems so rude.

Thanks!! Interesting! I’ve never seen a “shut” sign before, agreed that it sounds annoying though! “Shut” kind of makes “closed” sound classy by comparison. 🙂
