A man, a miss,
A car, a curve.
He kissed the miss,
And missed the curve.

There is a farmer along the route to our cottage that has his own Burma-Shave signs. He on occasion changes the saying just to keep thing fresh. The current offering is:
Said farmer Brown.
Who's bald on top.
Wish I could.
Rotate the crop.
