I truly loved this poem, it’s honestly one of my favorites from the poetry cards . It spoke to me deeply as I’ve been going through a personal situation with a family member. I found myself becoming impatient while trying to help them, but when I finally allowed myself to pause, breathe, and relax, and through my prayers to God , clarity came and everything felt lighter. Your words also helped me see that shift more clearly, and I’m so grateful for the reminder they brought. 🙏
Graham, beautiful poem and reflection. Thank you for sharing. I can relate to a great deal of what you shared as I look to the Holy Spirit within me to help me recognize when I’m resistant to change or I’m distracted for some reason. I’ve learned to ask God, “What am I to learn from this?” I do my best to ask that so I don’t sit with resistance that much.
Love this poem Graham, I love all of your poems,nice that you shared it with us once again. Sorry you had some travel issues. As I was reading about Air Canada strike I wondered if you may have been caught up in that. Will definitely be looking forward to the after party this week. Blessings!!🌞🙏🏻❤️
One of the most patient people I have met is Don McLeod. Your friend and mine Donnymac. Just being friends with him has taught me how to wait and appreciate that time of waiting. He doesn’t go into a job without praying about it first. He is a genuine person and I love that about him. Even when things are dicey for him he keeps his faith in tact. In 50 years of knowing people he is a rare find.
Thank you, Graham, for the choice and the timing of this poem. It is one of my favorites and timely because lately I am losing patience with myself in the balance of time. The balance of spending time online, in so many directions, and missing out on my life that presents itself each day right in front of me in moments that will never come again. I went out this morning to my favorite thinking spot, my bridge in the woods, and just listened in that present moment that will never come again. There was the answer. Continued blessings!
Graham, I loved the poem and reflection. Patience in God's waiting room can be tough for me at times. Trusting His timing and releasing my will, desires, and expectations can be hard, but ultimately, when I do, I find peace, guidance, and blessings beyond my expectations. I'm glad you returned safely to Australia.
Beautiful poem and message! It inspires me to look at my own reactions with more calm and compassion and to learn from every experience, even the most difficult ones. Thank you for motivating us to reflect on our inner world.
I have become impatient with my lack of time due to allowing my life to become a bit hectic of late and in turn becoming impatient at family members for placing ‘expectations’ on them!
My cup becoming full!
Timely reminder to stick to the slow lane and say ‘No’ which I do find hard…
My ‘gift’ is acknowledging that when I do stop is to see the beauty around me and be appreciative of what I have!
My family, my home, my health, my faith, friends and the gift of my 3 grand babies :)
When I Stop, take big deep breadths, play calming music, praying in my quiet place, all does bring me back to where I need to be!!!
We are God’s workmenship not a finished product, we are a “work in progress”. God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage. Remind yourself that you are here to learn lessons, extend compassion to yourself, trust yourself, and believe in yourself. There are no mistakes, only lessons! Beautiful poem!
Thank you for sharing this poem. I have your postcards and this poem is one of my favorites. It helps me to open my thoughts. Glad to hear that you are back in Australia. Blessings dear to you and Paola. See on Wednesday.
This is a great poem and with a very good message to me. Take a deep breath, and wait to not be in such a hurry to get a solution. God’s time , not mine. Patience has never been one of my “ virtues”. Working on that daily. Thanks for the reminder. Blessings and prayers on your Journey.

Don is a legend. Great guy!
He has added a blessing to my house I am so glad.
