ICU

William brooks 1959 (Salem)



I really love you Mother heart body and soul. Sorry that I never did what I was told. Never showed love the way I was supposed to. But I love you Mother and that I really do. I will not carry on and I promise you that. Up in Heaven is where you'll be at. In the presence with God with spiritual gain. All together loose from this worldly strain. Your love of life will always carry on. Hate to say this but even when your gone. Mother of the year that's what I would say. Carrying us through every single day. Dear Mother of mine think Godly as you sleep. And all of those memories yes I will keep. I love you today as O will do tomorrow. Through all of the laughter and all of the sorrow.

About this poem

If you've ever had someone close to you in the ICU then it is a frightening experience. That's why it is good to be kind to people because you never know when their time is up. This is to my Mother during her ICU experience.
