Dear one, be patient

Young one, be patient
Life needs more than a day to happen
Give little thought to how it all comes together
Find your comfort in only one knowing:
It all works together for your good

Beloved, Fret not
Go ahead, feel it all
This is not all there is
Put all your heart into that laughter
There is a lot more to come

Darling, don’t hold back
Put your favourite songs on repeat
Don’t hide the best clothes for too long
Look at the flowers, Look at the birds
Tomorrow will bring its own joys

Dear one, give all
All of your heart to today
All of your back to that work
All of your will to that love
All of you to this thing called living
One day at a time
One day at a time
