Waiting On My Wife

I sit and wait in my old rocking chair.
She moves at a pace of having no care.
Why is she never grasping?
These waits seem everlasting.
I’ll wait a lifetime on my wife so fair.

I thought this might include something about impatience, but all I see is patience and love. Nice tribute to your marriage an your wife.

Caron 29 years of waiting on that woman. The ironic thing is that she was/is always so busy giving directions to children and myself, constantly, sometimes to the point of being annoying about getting ready to go somewhere, then in the end we would all be waiting on her.
