Patience

[POEATREEMAN]

PATIENCE

There are Days
When I am Short

Yet
I Still Have 24hrs

Each Day
Tries me
A Test of it all

Patience
I need
To
Make
The Best of all

If
I am in a Hurry
I
Will Pass it all

Take
Time
To Remember
The Moment

To Recall!

Stop
and Smell
The Roses

You
Will Find
The Fragrance
Is Delightful
To Recall

For
Each
Step with Patience

You
Will Live it all

Two
Steps Ahead
You
will be behind
The Ball

One
Step into
Tomorrow
You
Will Lose it all..

A Poeatreeman

I Rushed
To Death
To Keep
an Appointment

Only
To Find
It Was My Grave

Too Soon!

I
Reached
My Appointment

Now
I am Lying
In My Grave.

PATIENCE
It’s Longer
Than Ten
Shorter
Than Five
It’s
The Time
You Wait
To
Just Get By.
