A Nature Poem

Beauty in Patience 

The blue jay, sleek and daring, darts through branches

Flying in circles, searching for it's prey

Patiently waiting

For it knows that the best things

Take time

Nearby, the bright green spider sways in the wind

Grasping the thin web it lays on

Patiently waiting

For it knows not to work hard, but to work smart

All around, the wind blows through the trees

Rustling the dozens of leaves

Patiently waiting

For it knows that eventually,

it will carry something off to it's destiny

Be patient 

For your time will come, some day
