The wait can be so long

The wait can be so long

The sting of death really what dose that mean

Death come then goes dose it not with all

With all death dose must it linger a while

Sickness invaded her life

Snuck up from behind

One appointment then to cut that very day

To save here life but was it really that way

To not talk nor to eat to do not much at all

But she was with us for eight very long months years it seemed

To recover the plan live life to it's fullest but what dose that mean

Four months later hell came to our home

To stay and care to hold her hand

Watching a mother fade wither fall away

Take her now let her go send your love to go home

Four months of 24 hour care

Then deaths sting left her linger their

I shed no tears not to this day

A week be for she watched angels display

Showed that His love is on the way

My mother did not die she just left for a while

Sooner or late I will go away

Home I will be home I will stay waiting for my loves to come home some day

Do not feel lose but know who He is and your heart will heal

I understand this completely. I have been there also. My heart goes out to all of you. Trust me the strong pain will fade, I promise. But, you will always miss her. You are in my prayers.

I'm sorry that you and your loved ones had to experience those horrible months. Then what of those that are taken from us suddenly???? I can't even imagine the shock of something like that!

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
