Notes About The Poem

Waiting For Any Woman

Be patient
be very very patient
after that
add more patience
then wait
and wait
and wait and wait and wait
become a waiter
at least you will be paid to wait

When she finally finally arrives
give her the biggest smile you possibly possess
tell her, "Hello love, you are early and
looking very majestically beautiful my sweet!
what have you done to your hair love?"
since you have waited a century or two or three
it's a safe gamble she has, and you my friend
will be a big winner.

Therefore when you wait and wait and wait
be a winner
even skeletons
smile

"become a waiter at least you will be paid to wait" - that hit me in the funnybone so hard. My heart hurts from the unexpected laugh that came out. This one is so funny!

Believe me I kept laughing while reading your whole poem! On the surface layer it is funny and light but it is rich with ache in depth.. A powerful write, an insightful rendition of one of human nature sufferings.. YES, sometimes we keep waiting for a beautiful soul to death! Brilliant! A FAV. My deepest regards Arthur.
