I wrote the following, I don’t know when. And posted it in this section of my website entitled “other writings”. But I decided to post it here today….where it’s more accessible to my regular readers.
I met a friend for an early dinner this evening. And I was reminded, very clearly, about waiting. My friend is actually the person mentioned in line 5….she waits for an answer, my friend…
Not my usual type of entry. But it seemed right for today. Because nearly everyone I’m close to is waiting for something.
wait
wait until
the weather is warmer
the holidays have past
I have time
she waits for an answer, my friend
another she in my life waits for something else
and me, I wait too
someone on the other side must be waiting as well?
await a response
reason
excuse
plan to be laid out
how long is reasonable?
is it worth the wait?
whatever it is
meantime, wait while waiting?
a procrastinator’s dream
waiting is just that
no need to act today
hurry up and
waiting game, an odd term
wait for someone who will never arrive
like Godot
wait on God
keep a distance
arms length
until we know for certain
wait until
Upon a Sunny Day
