Patience
Perseverance of many things that may not be controlled,
Actions not always taken on the fly without any regard,
Truth and value of all things and continually patrolled,
Intentional gain of thought will never end hands barred.
Exceptionally this virtue will allow such deep passion.
Never going off the wall in excitement that makes a fall,
Cleverness in containment of emotions may be old fashion.
Each of us needs to think, before overacting on what we saw.
