Patience
Patience
The virtue to wait poised
And only grab the moment
Opportunity present itself.
Not as one in wits weak
Who knows not the way:
But as strong wild thing
Never held in a cage.
Leopard lay in wait
Spotted in great beauty
Wagging its tail in silence
As if dead lying quiet and calm
Building up great strength within
Waiting till opportune moment
To spring and pounce
On fruits of patience.
