Return To The Previous Poem - Heartbeat
TEARS By ... Steve Lucky After the doctors had had their say, The old woman knew nothing else could be done. She would not last another day. It came as a shock to everyone. Many people started to cry. No one expected it to be so soon. Cancer rapidly spread leaving her to die Before the end of the afternoon. Despite it all, the old woman herself could smile From her continued will to live. Even during her final hours Something remained for her to give. Although the doctors proved to be right, Living was well worth the fight. Copyright 2003, Steve Lucky
