LXXVI - Waiting

.

One Minute Writer had a topic called "Waiting".
"What are you waiting for?"


Waiting

Patience, we’re told, is a treasure,
A virtue, and so, beyond measure.
But it’s so irritating
To sit around waiting
For a tradesman to come, at his leisure.

◊◊◊

Punctuality, there’s not much to it,
Should you ever wish to pursue it;
But it can be a shock
To arrive on the clock
As no-one ever sees you do it.
