Be Patient

Be patient with me people

I'm only starting to learn

I've spent so long alone and away

I know it's your trust I must earn.

Be patient with me please

Because I don't know what to do

Don't judge me for my ignorance

For once you were ignorant too

Be patient and help me

To learn what I don't know

I'm blooming late in the garden

A flower just starting to grow

Be patient for me and

I'll be patient for you

Teach me what you know

Then we both learn something new.
