Poetry

Patience is a fine virtue sought by many
Many fortunes were made starting with a penny
While in the Army I had to hurry up and wait
Many have had to wait for the right mate

All of our days are filled with waiting times
We wait while the cashier counts the dimes
There is no reason to get in a rush
We all have to wait, why make a fuss

A wise old man once said to me
Time goes by fast just wait and see
Before you know it you will be old and gray
Enjoy your youth, have fun and play

I know I can't control the times and seasons
Waiting times happen for many reasons
Wisdom comes from waiting on things
The wait is worth the prize it brings

Patience and endurance goes hand in hand
The long wait is over, strike up the band
It takes time to grow a large tree
But it is worth the wait its' beauty to see
