She felt joy
In daylight tulips
Beyond reach
Seen through a window
From a bed
She would never leave
Known to few
As years receded
Fading fire
Flowers that shone, like
Other days
And graceful moments
So sang the meadow
A mom in shadow
Tag: Near Death
After the Accident
The hum of the machine I hear
I feel another presence near
Or maybe two, I cannot tell
I cannot seem to see
I wonder where I am, and how
I came to be where I am now –
I know that I don’t feel too well,
And something’s wrong with me
Who is that crying? She’s so sad.
I once heard my wife cry that bad –
This crying sounds like she did then
But I just do not know
It’s dark in here, I feel a breeze
I hear somebody’s labored wheeze
But I can’t rouse myself again
I think it’s time to go
