In todays world so instant and swift.

We seem to be losing the patience gift.

We hate to wait, line up and queue.

Red lights we curse, even amber too!

 

We order food, we demand it quick.

Everything we want at a fingers click.

It's a Christian virtue, one of seven.

A virtue they say rewarded in Heaven.

 

'Things may come to those who wait'

That Lincoln quote, seems out of date.

Now we don't seem to tolerate delay.

So try a little patience, starting today.
