Wait

It is almost three

The door will open soon

We must be ready

Clean face and clean hands

Also look at your neighbour

A smile, a wink and a song

Great people have waited longer


It is almost six

The door has not opened

Inside is a mystery

Some clever plan of mankind

They closed the door

Blame them, blame the world

They changed the lock


It is almost nine

The door is still not open

Our patience thin as ice

It is cold on this side

Maybe the winter has arrived

Maybe our waiting is wasted

The mystery no longer secret


It is almost twelve

The door stays closed

We wait to wait more

Our minds tired and used

Maybe the plan is waiting in itself

Or is He knocking on that side?

We have the key but wait still
