Any day, any time now
before it’s too late
change will come
Delays battle deadlines
even on a small scale
Frustration is inevitable
Garner that resolve,
hunker down for the long haul
Inspiration is borne of patience
Justice knows no bounds
kneeling before righteousness
Long for vindication too long coming
Many might reconsider
not willing to endure
old-fashioned hard work
Problems beg for resolution
Questions demand answers
Realize we can solve them together
Somehow change will come
today or tomorrow, by proclamation or covert operation
Unknown victories will one day be revealed
Vying for a place to call our own
we make a difference
Xenial relationships can find common ground
Yearn for this change to come
Zoom toward that future now unfolding

Well done on the form! I like the flow, the fact you managed to write it into stanzas.
I really liked this one
“Garner that resolve,/hunker down for the long haul/Inspiration is borne of patience”
And “Problems beg for resolutionQuestions demand answers/Realize we can solve them together”
Thank you for the hope you gave me.

Well done. I enjoyed this hopeful poem. This stanza struck me:
Somehow change will come
today or tomorrow, by proclamation or covert operation
Unknown victories will one day be revealed
Great job with the form, too, Michele. Thank you. xoA
