While I Wait

The water flows
Without discernible movement
The sun shines
But no shadow detected
The wind blows
Without a puff of air
Plants grow
Void of fruit
Seats sit
Without a place to rest
....while I wait

Thanks for the humor. I am being pitiful! I have waited before, but this is quite different. The place I am going can NOT rely on familiar experience. Patience IS required...I'm good at that at all.
