Waiting

While waiting for waves the calm sways were ignored the pretty seashells were spoiled the soft sand was berated While waiting for kindness the soft words were taunted the healing scars were demeaned the quiet smiles were erased While waiting for shelter the weak ropes were broken the mellow tents were destroyed the soft stones were melted While waiting for peace the white paths were avoided the growing roots were removed the wise hands were refused While waiting for boats the tall trees were ignored the wooden rafts were wrecked the sand house was berated
