Perhaps the most
underrated job,
Is taking a walk to
the bus stop,
People move around so
fast,
One wonders if it was
similar in the past.
The movement nowhere
near sublime,
When evening traffic’s
at its prime.
People give vent to
their anger,
The space is filled
with rowdy gangsters
There’s no time to
stop and think,
Such a lapse could
bring you to the brink,
Who would think the
tiniest infringement,
Could lead to missing
a bus oh so infrequent!!!
I hustle and jostle
through this craze,
And make contact with
another in a daze
CRASH!!! It felt like
I hit a hill
Thank God! My arm is
good despite the spill
I look at my watch
more out of habit
And let out a gasp at
a sight so tragic
With no time for
others to stop and watch,
I’m left alone with a
broken watch…

I come across this everyday and same thoughts run through my mind asking why people are not relaxed and laid back?
:)
Some times, I have just stopped and looked at people hurrying up, and honestly, there are only a few things in the world that tickle me more.
This is a very nice analogy about no one having to stop and wait.
Thanks both of you.
Yes, I agree with you Jay. People need to calm down a bit and then they will see how much easier and fun travelling (in any form) can be
I am one of them most of the time :( But then, I actually enjoy being a bystander, wondering whats going through people's minds, where are they hurrying to? I never get bored in airpoirts and railway stations :)
Yes, airports and railway statioooooons are one of the better places to be alone :)
