Elder Fugate said, “Watch Your Wait”

Elder Fugate said, “Watch Your Wait”

In the words of Elder Fugate, wise and true,
He spoke a phrase, simple yet imbued,
"Watch your wait," he gently did decree,
A timeless lesson for you and me.

In this fleeting world, where minutes fly,
We often forget to lift our eyes,
To pause and grasp the moment, oh so dear,
To savor life's beauty, crystal clear.

"Watch your wait," he whispered with care,
A reminder to live with mindful flair,
For in the moments we hold so dear,
Lies the magic of life, oh so near.

In the silence of a dawn's golden gleam,
Or the twinkling stars by the moonlit stream,
Elder Fugate's words echo strong and bold,
Nudging us to cherish, as life unfolds.

For time slips away like grains of sand,
And moments lost, we cannot command,
So watch your wait, embrace every chance,
To dance with joy, in life's eternal dance.

From sunrise to sunset, in each passing day,
Elder Fugate's wisdom will guide our way,
To savor the laughter, embrace the tears,
And treasure each moment, throughout the years.

So let us remember, in all that we do,
To watch our wait, and to start anew,
For in these precious seconds, we find our fate,
Inspired by the words of Elder Fugate.
