She lay in the hospital bed
Looking so small
I had to remind myself
That once she was so tall
Always Vibrant and full of Love
Her heart struggling to beat
Death was coming for her
It was so painful to see.
He walked into the room
Appearing bright as the sun
Her life was now over
Before it had really begun
He ushered her spirit out
As She took her last breaths
And this fast became my
Most hated experience with Death
The new day was dawning
Birds singing their songs
Goodbye to you, Mother
We’ll see you before too long
So sorry for your loss – especially this year when it feels like time robbed us of moments with family. Take care…
This poem actually came from my mother’s death 25 years ago.
It feels like yesterday.
All is well. Thank you for your comment and caring heart.
