My life, my books, my poetry

The waiting and standing in the queue covid 19 shopping trip blues

The sun shone and everyone kept their distance Eventually and luckily coz I had just finished writing this piece I was let in. Then came straight home and added the piano. Stay safe stay well share the word and music not the virus

Well I arrived at the shop now.
I was ahead of the time
And I had my bags a ready
Savings he trolley collection time
I’m going to get my all my provisions
Depending what’s for sale at the time
I stood in the queue
Got myself a decent tan
Sent thirty something emails and I’m nearly at the door
Yeh I’m going shopping. What a fun thing to do
And we’re all queuing baby
Not like we’ve anything else to do
Yes I’m going shopping
Got my list of things to buy
Yes I’ve got my list of shopping and I’ll guess I’ll have to try
Coz half the things will be missing
And my whisky cupboards getting dry

Oh I love my retail venture
Glad I dont do it every day
Yes I can’t wait till this is over
On another sunny day
So stay safe my fellow shoppers. Someday it will all be ok
