This is a tribute to my brother-
in-law James Hill, who is in the last stages of cancer. Please say a prayer
for him, my dear friends. He is at home,
with a hospital bed, and Hospice coming in to help...but he needs your prayers.
God bless all of you for your wonderful support and prayers on all my tributes.
Authorsden has the most kind hearted authors that I know. I love all of you so much.


Poem Artwork


The sun sets on
Another day
As part of me
Slips away
Laying in my
Hospital bed
Thinking of
The life I've led

Memories dancing
In my mind
Some lost
I cannot find
So close
To Heavens door
I can't hold
On anymore

With gentle wings
Years flew by
As eagles soar
In the sky
Pages turned
Chapters read
Book is closing
All is said

Childhood thoughts
A loving wife
Beautiful children
Snapshots of life
Shadows of sunset
Color the sky
While embers of life
Slowly die
