The Bustle

Quickly wake up, shower and shimmy You're late for work and kids for school! Eventually arriving, settling into the routine Suddenly you realise you forgot something at home! All's a mess, again you overslept! Traffic's just crazy, your hairs a disaster Barely time to breathe, let alone eat! Afternoon pickups, late for hockey practice Its homework and laundry, then off to bed Awaiting the bustle that's sure to aggravate!

I love the simplicity of this little poem and the rhythm keeps up with the feel of the hustle and bustle of the busy everyday life
