May C Stevens, voyager by Henry Burt Stevens 10/31/2003 Riverlets of rain crease spring mud while I walk, collar up brim down soaking through Wondering if my mother will live till dandelions spot lawns again She'd rallied many times before confounding hospice nurses Ever cheerful, always kind without complaints- "I'm doing fine" Her certainity at joining dad defies my doubt Though I'd like to join her marble faith Her head stone waits needing only flowers and dates Sail on dear Mother sail on to port happy mooring

My mom doesn't appear to be near death. Her stomach cancer is in remission. She has Alzheimer's and my father tells me she's remembering less. She is my best friend. I barely made it through this poem, Henry. ~~Nordette
