MUSINGS AT THE SALOON...


As i went, this Sunday,for a haircut, to the saloon
I didnt know, a theme to write, would come so soon.
So i thought, some verses, i should think and write
about what all, out there, i could easily sight.

So i picked, from the rack, a piece of paper
and started to, thoughts and ideas, to garner.
Little did i realize that while i was in a reverie
a child was interested and my face, she was to see!!

Could be seen a parent out to console
as the child's tantrum was taking its toll!!
As the kid was out to let out a howl and cry
the man was thinking which trick, he must try.

The massager apparrently was in a mood to play tabla
as from his client's mouth, one could hear, "ooh-aah"
At the same time,beside them,what was on am not very sure
about his better half getting a manicure or pedicure.

A stylist worked with so much of dexterity
as she appeared to do some new variety.
Perhaps she was trying out a new style
that to set, on the client, took a while.

As to read, i picked up a fashion mazagine
a lady was out to get herself a new sheen!!
Perhaps she wanted to to look a lot younger
and make jealous, her hubby and daughter.

The other side, when i decided to take a look
I could hear an appointment,on the phone,someone took.
Few of them were near the counter with money to pay
as they looked refreshed and all set to face the day.

Suddenly i felt a tap and so i got to learn
that finally had come, after the wait, my turn.
As i arose and towards the stylist, i set to go
thought i, through a poem,what i saw, to all, i show!!
