We Used To Wait... Poem by Nina gáspari

we used to wait
for the dusk and the dawn
so we could watch
mother nature perform
we used to wait
for each other´s eyes
to be the guides
in a dark night
lost in a world of troubled minds
we used to wait
for better days
we used to wait
for the bonanza after every storm
for old dreams to be reformed
we used to wait
for good morning news
we used to wait
for a good piece of advice
when we didn´t know what to do
and we used to wait
for each other´s hand
to keep us warm in this cold land
we used to wait
for each other
before it was too late.
