What gets left behind
with our unmade minds
forever rushing?
What do we leave behind
if we did not take the
the time to notice?
What is no longer mine
because neither you nor I
could take our time?

‘When’ is a question greater than ‘why’.
Important it is to know ‘when’ something will happen, rather than ‘what’ or ‘where’, because ‘when’ always involves a wait (that’s ‘when’ the ‘why’ kicks in).
Our patience is tested.
“When will we get there” or “when is it time”? Both questions of our youth, at least, questions of mine.
Spring has arrived, but ‘when’ will it come? The weather still indicates winter is hardly done.
How can we wait, or ‘why’ is it we must? You might only find the answers ‘when’ you are ready to trust.
