For So Dear a Life Keep On Fighting
You are not lying
just a bitter ache hiding
acceptance is God’s blessing
deep Faith pain healing.
*****
A mission of Love
not a call of duty! That’s beyond and above
moments in time of devotion
your acts of love, a drop from an ocean
reminiscing weary souls in youth's grasp
cherished and cradled to the last gasp.
*****
A mission of gratitude
to a soul with noble qualities imbued
a whole journey of giving
a natural spirit of caring
to a precious parent so much we owe
the power of endurance, a willow!
*****
You are not hiding a truth
you're revealing the secret of Hope, in sooth
you’re keeping the flow of fountain of youth
you just have spared words of pity and ruth.
*****
A mission of honour
a parent, a real treasure.. alive or a goner
earning parenthood and humanity
deserving of being graced by respect and dignity
treated like royalty, served with sensibility
honoured for who they were, are, have become out of Love not duty.
*****
You are not lying
you just want your loved one to keep smiling
and have a precious soul forget that an end is coming
for so dear a Life.. keep on fighting.
