TWO FOR THE PRICE OF ONE

Michael Edwards

 

A QUIET CUT

I went for a haircut today,

a pleasure I really must say.

It was cut by a bloke

and he never spoke

except for ‘Hello’ and ‘G’day’.

 

........................................

 

DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO

 

Did a big shop at the grocery store

and with basket full I walked ‘cross the floor. 

Over to the checkout so I could pay -

transaction done and I heard her say:

‘Thank you sir, have a nice day’. 

With a steely look I failed to hide,

I snapped in reply: ‘That’s for me to decide!’
