Hurry Up And Wait Poem by Cindy H

Hurry up and wait
Hurry don’t be late

Sit around in the waiting room
Feelings of joy and of gloom

Dread and fear
Hope is near

Hurry up and wait
What’s behind the “gate”?

Hurry don’t be late
Hurry sit and wait

People come and people go
Some with good news, some don’t know

Some still waiting, some have gone
Never knowing what went wrong

Thoughts are running through your head
As you sit and wait those thoughts are fed

Hurry up and wait
Your time has come, you’re late

All that worrying and anticipating
Now you’re turn, no longer waiting

Hurry now you’re finally done
Time to relax and have some fun
