Patience

I want [fill in the blank] - Nope!
I would like [fill in the blank] - Not at all!
Here's the news: that isn't the reply
Whenever you ask for something.

Indeed sometimes the answer is No;
The other answer is an instant Yes - But!
There is another reply:
"Yes, but you will have to... Wait."
For how long? You might ask.
Well when you are Ready for it.
When will that be?
You'll have to wait for Awhile
Don't stamp your feet or scream and shout
Or cross your arms or cry and pout.
When you wait Patiently your Reward will be much Sweeter.
