Immigration Lines to Grocery Lines

By some definition, we’re all immigrants.
Moving place to place, on every distant shore.
New citizens be welcomed, but please acquaint yourselves,
to basics you cannot ignore – behind our open door.

Americans hold values, adopt them best you can,
gain skills and study English – spend some time to learn.
But there is one skill, you’ll use every day,
to grocery shop you’ll see a line – there you’ll wait your turn.
