Mother
I’ve been visiting you in the Nursing Home for over ten years
Going up to see you like that was not always easy to have a heart of good cheer
Always bringing you your favorite treats
Like bananas and ice cream
Now the Nursing Home tells us, you have just days to live.
That was two weeks ago, now you see more of your kids
Your granddaughter and grandson brought up your great grand kids
You seemed so happy and peaceful
I am so grateful
I miss you so very much though
