Kept Excuses Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The process it takes to acquire patience,
Often comes to some too late.
Since those with patience,
Realize what it takes to sit and listen...
Before comments from them are heard to make.

And that which should have been understood,
To comprehend without needless debate...
Has come to find many wishing to insist,
Their kept excuses made today that persists...
Should be given more attention for their value.
