Now it’s your turn to write a poem for Roadside Poetry!

Four 20 Spaces Per Sign Your poem must “fit” the signs. Each line can be no more than 20 spaces (count letters AND spaces) _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ HINT: The easiest way to write a Roadside Poem is to write one sentence and then “chop it up” into four lines to fit the signs! Have fun!
