Common sense, is a must tool,
To carry in life, every day,
For it only takes a second, or two,
To think how we act, or what we say.
When we approach a rail road crossing,
We take time, to look, and listen for trains,
Knowing, if we do not, take a few moments, of caution,
A sunny day, could turn cloudy, full of rain.
Sometimes, acting, or saying something to fast,
Can ruin, A person's life for years,
A few seconds, of thinking,
Could save many lives, and tears.
