A Sobering Thought Poem by S Holland

Bluntly honest and pure thoughtful wisdom.

@Bobby Wynn What a great comment! Thanks so much. Bluntness sometimes gets the point across a lot faster, don't you think, lol? Sometimes meandering loses people.

don't we all want to capture a butterfly, hold its beauty in our hands..... but butterflies are fragile, break easily and breathe earth's air for just one day so better still to watch while they fly ;)

We all like to do things quickly or at the blink of an eye. It is better to wait sometimes because good things comes to those who wait. A sobering thought indeed.

@Ruth Walters Thank you. I'm always glad to read your comments.

From now on, will be responding to comments at one of the poet's poems.

A sobering thought indeed my friend.

Thank you, Khairul. I really enjoy short verse too. When I see a long, long poem, I just loose interest in reading. Maybe it's because I do so much and have so little time :)

'Waiting is a virtue that is cultivated, '...Very true! Just four lines, but carries so much weight and wisdom! Stunned by the beauty of this short poem.

Thank you Patricia! Waiting is a virtue that is cultivated, don't you think?
