Lying There

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Wednesday, March 5, 2008

She lie there,
Studying the back-flow of blood
In the catheter’s tube,
Wondering why nothing had gone wrong
During the minor procedure.

She lay there,
A cold soul in a body of warm blood,
Caught in a catheter’s tube,
Wondering how everything had gone wrong
During her life’s brief procedure.

Ouch! This one really eludes to an unexpected death, perhaps a medical error again...

Be always safe,

Erin,

Thought provoking: wondering why nothing (everything) went wrong - sadness in these lines. Very well penned.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Outstanding composition in poetic-philosophic contents. "Lying There"
is an aliment for the learning minds.

In admiration,
