Waiting

~

You can test your patience by goin’ fishing

You can catch big fish if you wait and are willing.

.

It takes the earth 365 days to make a year,

But it keeps on going.

It takes centuries to make history ~

The freedom we’re now enjoying.

It took your mom nine months of waiting

Before she held you in her arms,

The moment she’ve been longing.

.

It took us years to learn to walk, talk,

Read, write, paint, sing.

It took us years to find each other ~

You were looking and I was waiting.

.

It takes days, weeks, months, years,

Centuries, eternity to build new things ~

There is always a price for waiting.

~

It doesn’t matter how slowly you go, as long as you don’t stop. ~ Confucious
