While Waiting

While waiting, opportunity went rushing by; While waiting, others met and fell in love; While waiting, dreams were reached by those who don’t; While waiting, seasons changed and were forever lost; While waiting, doors, once opened, now slammed shut; While waiting, the ship came in and sailed out again; Nothing great was ever achieved; No miracles ever occurred; No fortunes won or innocence lost; While waiting.

Great way to convey the wasted hours, days, years, that can come from waiting without action. Great poem:)
