Jack Ellison Poet Free verse

Wait Wait Wait

wait for this 
wait for that
wait feed the cat
wait we do
it's all we do
wait for the
light of green
stay in line
at the market
one thing though
ain't expected
wait a lifetime
the end will come
never be ready
for those glorious
golden gates
beckon me inside
but wait
there's still more
on my agenda
haven't seen it all
'tis impossible
glorious sights
a beautiful planet
not a problem
seems trivial
but at the time
it is uppermost
on my mind
