Words 3 Poem by Phil Soar

Who first said Red would mean to stop?
That snow would be called snow?
That rain would fall out of the sky?
That wind blew to and fro?
Who knew that news would be the news?
And create news reporters
Who turned roads into motorways?
And rivers into waterways?
And hills into the countryside
And motions into poo
When we look back on history
Before words were invented
We just said 'UGH' and walked around
As if we were demented
