Let Me See the Babies

To my Mom long gone but not forgotten.

Just a bare rememberence of the women she once was


In a antiseptic chamber where she spends her dying hours


I watch her aura dwindle more and more like the wilting of a flower


And ask the Lord each night to bestow me with some power


To take away the pain she feels and to make her whole again


But it seems he cannot hear me and I hang my head in shame


Then somewhere in this nightmare a miracle occurs she reaches for my hand


Get the wheelchair to the babies, and at once I understand


In all her pain and suffering she just wants me to see


The beauty God gave us in children that she knew would always be

excellent

this was an ideal poem for me to read right about now... taking care of my mother, though not yet dying, is a difficult chore... the last line sums it all up for me!
