What is Patience?

Extreme avoidance
of submitting to a wait.
- Clearly Impatience.

Silently waiting,
Even though, roiling within.
Is that real patience?

Avoid long wait tasks,
But calmly endure forced waits.
Do I know patience?

Patience, a virtue?
Should it be more than neutral?
Where is good in it?

Patience, part of love.
Want to love all my neighbors,
Relate in patience?

Learn patience alone!
Endure: long but needed tasks,
As well as forced waits.

Apply with others!
As we seek understanding,
or forgiveness, thanks.

Remember God waits,
If we are to love as He;
He's patient with us!
