Learn to wait -- life's hardest lesson Conned, perchance, through blinding tears; While the heart throbs sadly echo To the tread of passing years. Learn to wait -- hope's slow fruition; Faint not, though the way seems long; There is joy in each condition; Hearts through suffering may grow strong. Thus a soul untouched by sorrow Aims not at a higher state; Joy seeks not a brighter morrow; Only sad hearts learn to wait. |
