A beautiful Monday morning.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's a beautiful Monday morning
Yet most people see the ugly parts
Children are snoring loudly
The alarms are ringing cheerfully
The sounds of multiple high heels
Fill the whole city fields
Screeching of brakes multiply
Causing cursing aches in the
Head of passers by
Toots of horns
Loud and clear
Making annoyance fill the air
Splutter of engines
Fills the air
Joyfully puffing up
Polluting the atmosphere
"Mr. man, a bad engine on a Monday morning is what the Indians call a very bad omen" the passer by thought.
Making her way up
She stopped at the
Swishing of skirts
"Madam ,why'd you wear a short skirt when you knew how uncomfortable you'd be" the passer by thought mentally rolling her eyes.
Hearing the lashing of a whip
In front of a beautiful school
Her heart churned knowing
Quite well that a child was
Being punished
"No matter what it's too early for this" the passer by thought absent mindedly not giving a care in the world to why the child was being punished
Though she couldn't see the child she heard the cry of the child or so she thought
Moving on she smiled
Seeing how frisky and
Bubbly the junction
Food - seller was
While having up to
12 customers on a row
Moving further she
Couldn't help but
Widen her smile
Tea maker mallam danced
And twirled around to the
Singing of his kettle on fire
Briskly whisking the tea ingredients
Passing each ready cup
To his seated customers happily
Then she heard the shuffling
And trampling of feets
She sighed realizing
Her's was also making
The lucuios sound
Shaking her head
She stamped her feet
At the front of the
Company (her working place)
She made her way inside
Not before stealing a quick
Glance at the funny tout
Who called the destination
Of the bus on behalf
Of the calm and collected
Cute looking conductor
She looked at him one more
Time wondering aimlessly
Why such a person had such
An unbefiting occupation
Tearing her eyes away
From him
She cursed the light
Of the day
"Urrrrggghhhhh" she groaned.
"What a beautiful Monday morning" she huffed.
"Now I've seen the ugly part and the beautiful parts indeed " she concluded smiling to herself.
