A Message From A Nursing Home She slowly wiped the tears from her eyes As she sat in the flower garden alone Just how long had she been there Living in this nursing home Sadly her thoughts went back in time And the love and laughter in her home Could it have only been yesterday Why now then was she so alone Why did no one come to see her, she asked Had they all forgotten she was here After all these were her loving children And all of them she held very dear Had the children felt she had been a burden ? As she no longer could care for herself Fresh tears now began to flow from her eyes Couldn't they have tried something else And as her mind continued to wander To the man she had always loved She knew that soon she would join him Forever in the heavens above As the moon now made its presence known She slowly gathered up her books She knew in her heart no one would come As she turned for one final look As a gentle breeze brushed her silver hair She slowly wiped the tears from her eyes The nurse was now coming for her And she sadly bid the flowers goodbye Sadly as I write these words to you And before it is much 'too' late If someone you know is in a home Please don't let this be their fate Janie Moser © 2005                  Precious Memories Jim Reeves ~Copyright disclaimer~ All songs through out my website are for my evaluation(s) and/or music listening and educational purposes only.
