Letter to the editor 1, Dec. 22, 2015

Dear Editor,

Last night as I was just going to bed,

What to my wonder, loud bangs made me shake my head;

Lo and behold a driver quite drunk,

Had flipped and twisted and flown into a trunk!..

Tree that is, right in front!

Smashed the rear right up to the seat

Front and back bumper almost did meet

Lucky he was, walked out of the car

Smelling of alcohol from near and from far;

Neighbour and I were quick to respond

Called the cops and they soon came along.

Drinking and driving is rather dumb...

And none of us should ever succumb!

Happy and safe Holidays to one and all!

Helen Henshaw
