Although most people will tell you that "April showers bring May flowers," some will say that "Although rain in April is annoying, it starts the flowers growing."  Both versions of this simple rhyme (which apparently originated as a mid-16th century poem) illustrate the concept of patience.  However, there is no attendant implication of delayed gratification, since no present reward is contrasted with one that is greater, but later.
