Patience

 We wait for the day,

  when things will be better.

The calls for normal

  have died on the wind.

Patience, cries the world,

  stay safe, mask, wash hands.

Not like Pilate, to rid

  responsibility, for care.

Care of the neighbor,

  to respect others, love.

Patience teaches love,

  in the long waiting.

We begin to see,

  the love God shows us all.
