Best Good Things Come To Those Who Wait Poems
If you can keep calm when all around you,
Are frustrated, and angry with you,
Always believe in yourself, and be true,
Don’t be too proud, be positive with others too,
All good things come to those who wait,
Don’t ever listen to lies, that’s a fact,
Try to avoid being hated, don’t ever hate,
Do not show off, and from yourself distract.
Dream, but do not let dreams absorb you,
Put all to thought, and exercise this through,
If you succeed, become befallen too,
And meet these dire opposites at their game,
Stand up to truths that you believe in,
They know not what they speak, they only shame,
So jealous of your hard earnings, a twin to sin,
They try to mimic, to no avail, they do not gain.
Put all you have achieved to one side,
Knowing who you are, believe in do or die,
You might lose, begin again, with it abide,
Tell no one of any loss, reach for the sky,
If you can use your strength, and soul,
To carry on, as grace helps you to become whole,
And try everything within, to reach your goal,
Tell them I’ll carry on, not dig myself a hole.
If you speak with others, to thy self be true,
Be proud, never lose sight of who you are,
If friend or foes have no ability to scar,
If they agree with what you say, but not with all,
Be forgiving, don’t think you're better, and then fall,
If all you say is sound within sixty seconds,
You have achieved your worth, which always beckons,
And - indeed more - you’ll be a man my son!

Tainted mindset
This world is going in shambles
Has it become more than we can handle?
Yes
Time to get this off my chest
Wonder when will the world not stress
Value people life
Instead of cutting their life short
We abort our situations and concentrate
On a world that no longer represents love but hate .
Is it fate
That brings you to
Trying to help others
Regardless of race size or color
Our minds are tainted
An image painted
We have no choice
But to learn from it
(REPEAT 1X)
I paint this picture
In my head
I try to view everything from a different led
I try to remember a lot of things that were said
That was instilled in my mind
Like always be kind
Good things come to those who wait
Know that it's ok
If we make mistakes
Try your best to lessen your plate
Stay woke, stay awake
Learn to appreciate
Appreciate the smaller
If you don't know how to walk
Start as a crawler
It's the beginning
Of time you are winning,
Just make a plan
Strive be the best you can
Our minds are tainted
An image painted
We have no choice
But to learn from it
(REPEAT 1X)
Bridge :
You have a plan
To be the best you can
Repeat 1x)
Our minds are tainted
An image painted
We have no choice
But to learn from it
(REPEAT 1X)

Fickle fingers of fate
They say "good things come to those who wait"
but indecision leaves love dangling...
in the fickle fingers of fate.
Take control of your own destiny,
grab the bull by the horns...
and ride the back of what's meant to be.

Good things come to those who wait
That's what folks always told me
So I waited and waited, so patiently
'til the blessing came ~ senility
The Brave Knight
Poignant agonies stabbing the heart of a young chap,
howling in despair, longing for the furlough,
Away from the intoxicating life of mishap,
Strung out to the white lies he was once told.
Good things come to those who wait, so they said .
Like a saint with so much patience he stayed.
But the reality struck him hard..
Hiding in the fortress won’t get you the buck,
Out on a stallion, fight like a brave knight – well,that might.
Before the plague begin.
Before the bridge get burn,
Before the cavalry is under siege and the gate is open.
All hail the brave knight.
I take a deep breath
And speak my mind while time is still left
I wish for everything to go my way,
I wish that all this hurt and all this pain would all just fade away
To be in love I always pray
To make it a peaceful and joyful day
With love in your heart, it is impossible to hate
I never will know or understand fate
To show love you always have time it is never too late
Good things come to those who wait
I do not believe love hurts
To make it happen takes a lot of work
Love is definitely taught
However, it cannot or should never be bought
It is priceless
It comes with no stress
Always when evil lurks it is constantly put to the test
To have it in our lives we are bless
It four letters make a powerful word
To anyone it is the best thing heard
For some to say it or show it, it becomes so hard
A cherished gift from God
Love doesn’t make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
- Franklin P. Jones
“Birds of a feather, flock together”
They also do other things as a group
Like pooping on your brand new bonnet
At times they'll even poop in your soup
“Laughter is always the best medicine”
Not so if you have a runny nose
You'll get that green stuff all over the face
You might even get some on your toes
“Sleep tight, don't let the bugs bite”
Those nasty little critters are pests
Sleeping tight sure ain't gonna stop 'em
From chomping on your tender pink flesh
“You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear
What an absolutely disgusting concept
At least you could wait till the pig's deceased
'Cause I'm sure the damn thing would object
“Keep a stiff upper lip, my dear old chap”
It'll stop you from saying certain words
Like “honeyfuggle” or “snollygoster”
But you can still utter “dirty turds”
“One man's junk is another man's treasure”
Let's try to be realistic here
If you treasure a broken down piece of junk
Then you're welcome to it, my dear
“Good things come to those who wait”
Especially if you're waiting to sprinkle
If you cross your legs and sing “Hey Jude”
It'll seem like no time till you tinkle!
Honeyfuggle:
Deceive by flattery or sweet-talk, swindle or cheat
Snollygoster:
A shrewd, unprincipled person, especially a politician
i love you girl yes
your so beautiful everyday
carefree of the hate
happiness a must
erased the scars from me
building my empire
competition free
drama free being alone
learned self worth from hurt
aura free of darkness
good things come to those who wait
roaming to freedom
protecting my heart
open to true love once again
praying for new path
my wisdom ascend
refuse to settle for less
back turn to cowards
boundaries set up
banish the juvenile acts
new love come in pure
I went to buy an R.V.
They said all I could afford was a Lose-a Beggo.
I bought a pair of alligator shoes.
But then I started wandering off into swamps.
Finally, I had to toss them, they were
really biting my feet.
I got arrested for tossing
an endangered species.
I got a fantastic price on a
1995 calendar.
I discovered the Missing Link.
(Of my broken chain).
Were cell phones invented for prisoners?
I bought a hot dog from a street vendor in NYC.
I guess he didn't like my looks.
He offered me mustard gas.
Speaking of hot dogs, I bought a $500
hot dog roller-grill machine.
But then I could no longer afford the hot dogs.
I'm so dumb I used to think hot dogs
were Dobermans left out in the sun.
The waiter asked me if I wanted some
mussels. I said I couldn't afford the
gym membership.
What's in a name?
Letters, I guess...
I use Military time, cause I
thought the o'clocks were just
for Irish people.
Did the Ottoman Empire
build forts out of armless sofas?
Someone told me they wanted to see Tibet.
I said, "Why?...No one will win."
I couldn't afford the colon cleanser, so I got a semi-colon cleanser.
Why do they call those big eighteen wheeler trucks "Semis"?
Where's the other half?
Whoever said "All good things come to those who wait" must've had a different
postman.
My neurologist calls me Mr. Numskull.
Someone asked me what my net worth was. I said I pay $9.95 a month to be
online.
I have so many electric pianos the electric company had to build another power
plant.
Amazon doesn't like me either. I ordered an 8mm camera- they sent me a
loaded 9mm gun with instructions on suicide.
Have a good one, more on their way.

Quote: Give life your best shot for desires appear and disappear
Love alone unties the Gordian knot
Now that we are here, let us do our very best
with what we have been given, God will do the rest;
Since we have been called to live a life of authenticity
we ought to shun duplicity and deceitful ways
in order to make way for the best version of ourselves.
When we do this we can accept most anything that God
sends our way. Sword in hand we fight the battles of life,
like an Arc-angel of old. No support team is needed
if you place your best efforts in the hands of the greatest
Alchemist there ever was...
Love alone unties the knots of life so knit yourself
to the belief that good things come to those who wait...
Sit by the River Jordan and be baptized into His palpable Love
Unloose the sandals of despair, step into hope and live.

If good things come to those who wait full term,
Then why is the early bird getting the worm?
They say not to beat horses already dead,
But will it hurt much to speak ill instead?
The world is a nail if you only have hammers.
If the world is your oyster, is ‘shucks’ in your grammar?
If the world is a stage, do scared oysters stammer?
If not letting a sleeping dog lie is uncouth
How sure are we barking dogs will tell the truth?
If it isn’t about whether we win or lose
Can we skip slow, steady, go fast if we choose?
These darned aphorisms bewilder, confuse
Don’t judge by their cover, walk a mile in their shoes.
“Pour me another” is all that I hear
When I’m down the pub at this time of year
I don’t want your Vodka, Archers or Rum
And I don’t want the drinks set aside for your Mom
A drop of the black is just what I need
Pour me a pint, or maybe two, or just three
It pours so gently into the glass
A perfect pint, it’s in it’s own class
With its beautiful body and its creamy white head
I reach out my hand and I’m easily led
“Good things come to those who wait”
How true are those words that seal my fate!
My intentions are good, my intentions are true
I’ll have just the one … or maybe a few
As I down the first, the second and more
I converse with wisdom about legends of yore
My words of great wit just continue to flow
I’m at peace with the world, there’s a definite glow!
And so this fine evening has drawn to a close
I put one foot in front and just follow my nose
Through the town centre and straight up the hill
Best call me a taxi … I think his name’s Bill!
But there’s no need to worry, there’s nothing to fear
I’ll be back in the bar in good time for New Year!
For once, I will be
The one who waits for those of
Whom want my friendship
More than anything else or
At least want to have some fun.
Truly it is no small mercy but some
more noble importance favoured on me,
you are a child in time whose time has come
and I love you, Little Man, desperately!
For I am cheerful in hope and all things
that the bright stars are yours to upward aim,
and guide you to the Valley of the Kings
or ghost ship treasure on the Spanish Main.
Let adventure and crossing fill your days -
may God’s keep watch over you to your grave,
thus learn well beginning so young always
that time is your master and not your slave.
You are to me by a nature so great
living proof good things come to those who wait.

It wasn't long ago when I heard the news
Your present relation turns to be untrue
And if you weren't binded by deception
I would be the one for your soul connection
Upon hearing this, I was taken aback
Moved by fresh knowledge I no longer lack
Astonished you are aware of my existence
Now I feel the next step would be persistence
But good things come to those who wait
In the meantime, I'll be content and perculate
Patiently waiting for the day to come
When you and I together can unite as one
If you didn't know, then now you do
The feeling is mutual, this message to you
So when you are able to break free
Seize the moment and pursue your fantasy
I can fulfill one's dreams when inspired
Along with the package comes sensuous desire
You know what you want and so do I
Only time will tell when to open your eyes
