RDP Friday: DELAY
Wait
and let your little Sister catch up
wait and let your little Brother catch up
to you,
don’t be so selfish
why do you deserve to be at the front of the line
why do you need to be first
What are you, selfish?
Wait
your turn
but first
help your friends, your neighbors, random strangers through that door
help them cross that dangerous street
be there, be helpful, don’t roll your eyes up like that.
What are you, selfish?
Wait your turn
and then and only when
the road is clear
and everyone is safe and secure on the other side
then it’s your turn to go.
But first remember to check
is there anyone behind you?
There is?
Then you better
wait your turn.
Let them go first.
Why not?
What are you, selfish?
Good poem to express peace and brotherhood on the 4th of July.
