I appreciate your spiritual message in this poem! Yes, we have our dreams but God has the timing and sometimes, He will edit our dreams. Overall, He never changes - He remains faithful and good!

Thank You so much for going back in my portfolio and reading and reviewing this piece. I think covid 19 has caused too many to wonder about God's working in the lives of His children. Thanks for the kind words, and the 5 stars.

WOW, Doc! Just WOW!
And (just 'cause I'm the comma Nazi)...
No commas in the first line.
But that didn't take a single thing fro this poem. Look for publication, my friend.
Blessings,
Deb

Debora, thank you so very very much for your six stars and your wonderful words of affirmation for, "waiting in the weeds". Something came up that has kept me away from my computer for a couple of days and I apologize for being late in responding. Thank you so very much for caring enough about a less informed student who really does want to become the best writer he can.

Rhyming and timing commendable. Story is thought-provoking. We tend to rush too much and rely on material things more than spiritual things . Material things expire. Spiritual things last forever

Thank you so very much for the kind review of a poem that gave you no points. I wrote it to remind myself that God doesn't "waste" waiting periods, even if we "feel" wasted!

Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to review my poem. Sorry to be so late, can't explain.
Comment from Liz O'Neill
You have used some strong metaphors. The reader will be drawn in to reflect upon their dreams. This makes me think of the struggles I've been recently working on. Eckhart Tolle has helped me to realize there is no reason in resisting reality and that the dream will become real in the now. We need to redefine our approach rather than getting stuck WAITING...waiting...waiting. Thanks for addressing this.

Here's hoping you come out of those weeds soon, press the continue button, and enable your dreams to be fulfilled.
Good luck in the rhyming poetry contest!

Waiting on the Lord to help us along the road is the toughest challenge in anyone's life. What a beautifully written poem and I love the old Studebaker bus!
Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

I just want to thank you for taking the time to read and review my poem. Thank you so very much for those SIX beautiful stars. Your vote made this piece "exceptional"!
?Waiting in the weeds? is my autobiographical challenge at this time in my life. Some would call me old, I just want to think I?m experienced LOL I also want to think that I am prepped for a whole new field of endeavor that is really my destiny. I?m glad you felt like you could relate to a voice that tells you,: ?you too have more in you and it?s not too late?. God isn?t done working, and you are a part of his plan. God bless you, embrace the love from above.

Thanks for your lovely response. I identify because I'm 'experienced as well :) We are all a 'work in progress'. God isn't finished with us yet. God bless :)

I read with much interest this beautiful work trying to find an answer, or an explanation. Two big losses in my life, the loss of my grandson, and now the loss of sight. I am writing this in a special computer, and in my soul eyes I see my grandson every time I want. Maybe this is an answer...
