The Information has been posted
on, paper, sign or online hosted
open your eyes and read
sometimes it plants a seed

Of knowledge that you need to know
so you can plant it and let it grow
into a question or a decision
so you can choose and with precision

Open your eyes and you will see
information for you and me
keep your head up and pay attention
read the print and do as bidden

Signs, signs, signs everywhere
read them and show you care
about the time it took to make them
and the information that it’s conveying

Documents or Directions or Instructions on paper
read to the bottom, or you’ll wish so later
or maybe it’s on a screen in digital ink
pay attention or you will sink

Into a pit full of frustration
or suffer from a fit of consternation
read it carefully line by line
or suffer the consequences of not reading the sign.
Just read the **** sign, or the papers I handed you or the email.  I think you get the point.
