                 PATIENCE

                 By: Kari A. Harrington



    Patience is so hard

     

    Patience is so hard!

    When I want to talk,

    I have to be patient

    With the person I am talking to.

    I have to wait for them

    To get my message.

     

    Patience is what you must have

    What I have to go to the John.

    Sometimes I just wish

    I could get on my feet

    And go myself.

    But, I have to be patient

    And wait for somebody to take me.

     

    Patience is not easy

    When I want to get out of bed,

    In the morning I call.

    Everyone else wants to sleep.

    Sometimes I just want to

    Get right out of bed myself.

    But I am patient until

    Somebody comes to get me.

     

    Patience is what I have

    When I need something to be done for me.

    I must sit there until

    People are not talking

    Before I can speak.

    Sometimes I am interrupted

    And people forget all about me.

     

    Some people say

    I should learn to yell when I want them.

    Someday maybe I will.

    But I have had to learn to be oh so patient!
