Here's a poem I wrote about the long wait for the fifth Harry Potter book. In it I'm addressing JK Rowling.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Order of the Phoenix

You don't know how hard it can be

Wanting, waiting, never knowing

When it will come I cannot foresee

Will it be sunny or will it be snowing?

Some people say "it's only a book

How can it mean so much to you"

I reply "why don't you look

At the four published and you'll want it too!"

I must know what happens now

Please let me see

I can't imagine how

Good it will be

I trust you will finish

Before I go crazy

Your mind won't diminish

I know you're not lazy

Just please try to hurry

For my sake and your own

I'll try not to worry

I'll try not to moan

When I read the book

I know it will be

No matter how long it took

Even better than three
