Waiting

Remembering that there are times,
when we are called to wait,
as those we love are suffering,
and nothing can be changed.
It's only love, as thought or prayer,
or touch, or gift or word,
which reaches out across the world,
when nothing can be done.
We learn that sometimes being,
is all that we can be,
because there is no doing,
for them, for you, for me.
