Slug inching across to the other side, What’s so near, apart, a mile wide. Snap, and an answer you’d expect, Moment of silence, an eon to reject. Indeed, wine becomes finer with time, The taste of patience, all but sublime. Sour hours drag as the clock ticks While nails nibbled down to the quick. Frantically searching for your other half Only to be impaled by rejection’s gaff. Blessed are those who patiently wait, For there’s always a fish for every bait. At first it may seem not worthwhile, Surely your reward will crack a smile.

Patience
Slug inching across to the other side, What’s so near, apart, a mile wide. Snap, and an answer you’d expect, Moment of silence, an eon to reject. Indeed, wine becomes finer with time, The taste of patience, all but sublime. Sour hours drag as the clock ticks While nails nibbled down to the quick. Frantically searching for your other half Only to be impaled by rejection’s gaff. Blessed are those who patiently wait, For there’s always a fish for every bait. At first it may seem not worthwhile, Surely your reward will crack a smile.
