My Three Pet Peeves

Three things I hate most in life, And struggle in my fight and strife. I hate to see people lie. They say they can justify, For them lies have colors. For me lies are bad manners. For them lying is as easy as eggs. For me lies have very short legs. I also hate people with excuses, Though this will be of no uses. For he who excuses himself, Does nothing but accuse himself. I also hate coming late to any activity, For this is a sign of naivety. 'Better be late than never', Is the weakest excuse ever. Better come early than late, As if coming to a blind date. I hope one day the world will be, Rid of these pet peeves and ever happy.
