Standing in a line

Waiting for my baguette

Listening to the pounding, the rolling, and the stretching

Waiting for my baguette

Watching the process over, over, and over til’ it’s in the heated oven

Waiting for my baguette

Listening to a soothing French lullaby from a baker

Waiting for my baguette

Watching people ahead me receive their freshly baked bread

Waiting for my baguette

As I patiently wait,

“Bing!!!” the oven went off

Here comes my baguette
