LOL! Love the play on the word change. The haiku raises for me my own impatience as I can't get everything done at once in my new home.

I'm laughing! It's fun, clever. I'm going to try writing fun next time. It'll be hard, since I'm not fun!
My change is here. Thank you.

Your haiku captures the essence of waiting. And incredibly witty.

That use of change never crossed my mind. Made me think of how the world can go by when we are waiting and not being involved.
