Waiting

Waiting.... That's All I Ever Did. Get There!! I know I will soon, But where is there? And how much time is left? I Get There And wonder where WHEN went. There is Here.... Gone is Now.... And NEVER Leaves. Waiting.... That's All I Ever Did. Got There! Can't remember How I went, but Then was There And Time was sent Up from Down... When there....I Went. Waiting.... That's All I Ever Did.

It has been said that "Good things come to those who wait." It has also been said that "weight broke the bridge" I believe it is a good thing to have patience enough to wait, just as long as it does not become a heavy burden... Thank you Robert for sharing the read. I look forward to reading more of your works ;-) Many Blessings, Always, Adell

Hello SKAT A. Thank you for letting me know that it was a delight reading my poetry. To let you know a little more about me...I not only enjoy reading & writing, I also enjoy music. I play guitar & bass guitar.n the process of starting a band. Just a lead guitarist & myself thus far. What about you? What or who has influenced you and your writing? And what is your favorite music genre? Thanks again for boosting my confidence a little. I appreciate it very much. I will also add you to my soup friends...keep up the great writing!!!

Thank you Anne. I have always been nervous about sharing my poems with others & some or actually MANY of my poems were written during my dark times in life. I am very satisfied with the soap family thus far. I'll be reading yours today too....just need more coffee first...lol.
