The art of waiting

Tired of waiting Endurance exhausted Overtaken by impulse Driven in to hasty action Suffering backfire and repenting But the gone does not return Flowers wait for the spring Days wait for the sun Stars wait for the night Dew waits for the dawn But the harried mortals Forget the order of nature Life is a game of patience, Tolerance and restraint May be difficult to many But, no other option Right and wrong are not absolute Perceptions vary and fluctuate The wise ones do not react They respond with poise and calm And get the desired result Be with the nature Let the fruits ripen Your basket will be full
