The Queues of Life

Waiting in the barbers for my hair to be cut
Didn't matter the queue was long and didn"t tut
I waited in line also for the clothes shop too
Wasn't concerned about the length of the queue 

I felt rather peckish so again I waited my turn
The queues of life is what we all must learn
If you want something today be prepared to wait
Come in good time or you will be running late

Slowly but surely the world will return once more
Shopping at shops is something to adore
Please don't consider it a chore or a pain
For the alternative is they will be closed again

you bet we have to wait...and for a haircut...many never? A pleasure to read but the truth of this is pretty sad.
