There Will Be a Thirty Minute Wait
There will be a thirty minute wait, okay?
I would have been disappointed with any other way.
This actually gives me time to write away.
The beginning of a fantastic day.
Within a few minutes another lady comes to sit.
She and I begin a conversation; she has such wit!
When they call me and tell me it is time to

Hairdresser
Your hairdresser today is Emily -
‘It’s good to see you, wow, it’s been a while’
She says. She’s wearing lots of PPE
It has. I’m glad that I can see her smile
Behind her plastic visor. She looks well
Some people do - it’s not the same for me
But then there’s nobody to see, or tell
So that’s OK

Wonderland IV: The Hairdresser's Tale
Morning In The Hair Salon
She would chat and then nod as she washed
And laugh as she dried and then curled
But behind all the smiles that were wide, fixed and false
She felt challenged and alone in the world.
She felt angry and always so tired
With debts adding up to her worry
She would rather stay home and dream

The Hairdresser
The hairdresser is a species of a different kind
of the best disposition you’ll ever find.
They’ll know you better than hubby or wife,
relate to every aspect of your pitiful life.
They’ll listen intently to each of your woes,
nodding profusely saying ‘that’s how it goes!’
And never will they, ever judge or complain,
even if you can be, somewhat

While cutting my hair I confessed to her

I'd love her so much
Grazed her chest and my bob became lesser

Has Own Hairdresser
Good Politician
Has a waiting period
To hear from mother.
Have heard she is one
Running all of his business
And also henpecked.
Women will be best
For being politician
Has own hairdresser.

Swashbuckling Pirate Or Demented Hairdresser
Eyes that draw you in, eyeliner accentuates not always sexy on men
Different movies, different accents, believable at all times
Every movie he's in, each character he plays seems to be a part of him
From shy, withdrawn hairdresser, with scissors for hands
To a orange haired hatter, with a Scottish accent
He's a one of a kind man, mysterious,

- My Singing Hairdresser Friend -
I have a singing friend
he is my hairdresser
He lives a simple life
Wondering if tomorrow
will bring the sorrows and worries
A small place to stay, together
with his old and sick mother
Food on the table to day
but what about tomorrow
I have a singing friend
he is my hairdresser
He think a lot and he
worries about the future
The sun is
