How long does life wait?
As we hold fast,
dreaming of another day.
In the bustle of the every day,
rushing through each moment,
always on the go, go, go.
When will there be another day?
I can see the quiet refuge,
calling me home.
Yet I cannot return,
with still more to do.
How long does life wait?
My hopes reach forward,
praying always
that it wait for me
at least for
another day. ~ Caroline A. Slee
