Patience
As artificial rush of doing grows
Remember nature's patience all around
The patience for sunlight to find the rose
The patience for the rain to reach the ground
Witness the centuries of endurance
The fortitude of trees to touch the sky
Morning into midnight will bring balance
The wind will wait for the sparrow to fly
Do not hurry the ocean to the shore
Or let new opportunities sweep past
Allow, for today, moments to explore
The time we have disappears far too fast
Feel under your feet Earth's stability
Take a breath, refresh your tranquility
