Wait!!!
From the Yesteryears Series Collection
Wait; the longest four letter word in the English vocabulary
One of the rarest of virtues in this microwave age of ours
One whose undercurrents are those of great patience, the milieu in which perfect men are spawned
Wait! They say
Wait! He says
“Why? I sometimes reply”
And at other times when I lack the boldness to query, every fiber of my being shouts it out loud
Wait! He says
Ah! Oh so difficult it seems
All systems on the go
Engines fully revved
Gears engaged
Oh, oh! there go the brakes!
Wait! He says
“You do not understand at all, I want this stuff like yesterday”
“Yeah, got to grab these things now”
“Come on!! You know I need it now”
Wait!!
“Ah, ah now! This stuff looks real good”
“It sure feels good inside my heart”
“I even told you about it”
Wait!!!
“How can you say that?”
“Golden opportunities fly-by like migrant birds in search of better climate”
“It looks to me like it is now or not at all”
WAIT ON ME!!!
Life is too short to live in regret, ensnared in its cold embrace
WAIT!
I love you
WAIT!
I make all things beautiful in my time
WAIT!
And mount up with wings and soar higher than the eagles
WAIT!
Renew your strength
Get a loading dose of all you need to do what you have to
WAIT!
I have the inside scoop on opportunity!
I make things happen
WAIT!!
Let me lift you up
Let me give you what you truly need
WAIT!!
For I am coming
I am always on time
Never have been late
Never missed an appointment
WAIT!!
Can see what you cannot
Hear what you do not
I explore the secret places of life
WAIT! AND KNOW
You can never be better than I can make you
Can You?
From the Yesteryears Series Collection
Can you fill the loneliness of my heart?
Can you occupy the seat of my innermost desire?
Can you touch the deepest parts of me?
Can you reach the real me, reaching to the place where it really counts?
Can my pain be your pain?
Can you feel exactly what I feel and would the feeling be strange to you?
Can you stand by me and be there for me always
Can you uphold me in the face of my greatest weakness?
Can your strength be mine?
Can your heart make room for me?
Can you cause me to fully mend from the abuse and exploitation of my past?
Can your balm soothe my soul and bring a healing my way?
Can you sustain my hope and fulfill my joy
Can you satisfy my deepest hunger, bringing nourishment to the very core of my being?
Can you be the tender of the garden of my heart, causing pleasant and fragrant flowers and choice fruit to so sweetly blossom and grow?
Can you extract from the ore my pure form, causing me to shine and to glow?
Can you remove from me crudeness, bringing polish and culture?
Can you discern that which words cannot express?
Can you fathom the depths of their intensity?
Can you sate the longing, the yearning, the hunger, the thirst, and my innermost cravings?
Can you wipe the tears from my eyes and plug the fountain deep within?
Can you love me the way nobody else can?
For So Long
From the Yesteryears Series Collection

For so long I have waited, waited for this time to come, waiting for the time you would come
My past has been spent in preparation, being groomed by all of life’s circumstances and situations that I’ve had to go through, both the good and the bad, keeping me in readiness for the time you would manifest
The times and years gone by may have been spent in preparing me, but from the moment you walk in, the rest of our years would be spent in consolidation
All that I’ve been through was all in a bid to make sure that when you arrived, you would not be coming to precious material that had no value
I think about you and wonder how it would be. How we would chart our own course (with God leading us) through the uncharted regions of Loveland
How we would scale the mountains, run through the valleys, swim the currents and then step out on the other side into our resting places
How we would go through the processes, two rough stones being continually rubbed together until all the rough edges of our lives are smoothened out and we fit snugly into each other
How we would accomplish God’s great purpose for our lives, fulfilling our destiny and the purpose for which we were brought together
Come, take my hand, let us walk through life with fulfillment and great love
Come, let us manifest the glory of the ONE who made us
Come, let us enter into our wealthy place, prepared before we were made
Come, bring the favor of God into my life and be the crown on my head
Jewel of inestimable price
Rare and precious gem
The desire of kings and of men of valor
Come, enter into my life
There is a place waiting for you
A place that only you can fill
