Dressed and waiting in her room I roll up the shades to hide the gloom She tries to smile as she looks at me But a glimmer of a tear is all I see She stares at the pictures on her wall As she hopes at least one will call Maybe they will visit, I hear her say As she sits alone for another day. Shadows linger as she watches the door Tears come , too tired to wait anymore And ache in her heart that won't go away She resigns herself to no visitors today Patiently, I get her ready for bed I hold her hand, not a word is said As she closes her eyes I hear her say They haven't forgotten me, tomorrows Another day Another patient buzzes me, I have to go I wipe away my tears hoping they won't Show.. � Linda Hill 2003

Linda, beautiful poem. It is so sad how relatives or loved ones treat the elderly. Just a few minutes of their time seems too much to ask.
