The preacher said it's more
than just waiting.
It's knowing it will come.
Like ordering a package
that takes a longer route
or is delayed by the holidays.
Still, you know it's coming
it's on the way.
So I want to thank Him
in advance for whichever
delivery method He chooses
and to say I know timing
is always going to be off
and for reasons I don't know
but I want to thank Him
for knowing for me.
I am resigned in heart and soul
that I am not alone
not left to figure it all out
or to need a farsightedness
of all that is possible.
It's not always easy
to lay down just when you
want to run in every direction
searching for the answer
the place, the person
fit it all into a timetable
I have no control over,
and once I know that
waiting is less painful
more certain
but because I'm human
When? still looms in my mind
When? still looms in my mind
like a flashing neon sign.
