This ardent son has sacrificed,<br />
In ways you need not know.<br />
Patience is my virtue.<br />
While waiting for her to go.<br />
I know someday I’ll miss you<br />
That day will come too soon.<br />
I witness your subtle starvation<br />
To enter, into that room.<br />
So, when I enter slumber<br />
and eventually awake.<br />
I take a second look some days<br />
to see if God doth take.<br />
It can't be easy, being 90<br />
Soon to be 91<br />
You have often told me<br />
This isn't any fun.<br />
A prisoner to your body<br />
Confined to bed and chair<br />
At least you still have money<br />
To pay for special care.<br />
I wish you best as always<br />
I wish you peace my dear.<br />
An ever loving ardent son,<br />
Always present, always here.<br />
To leave this world, is up to you<br />
Your maker may have say.<br />
My job, to guide your journey<br />
With integrity, sans fear.<br />
We laugh, we smile, and we’re goofy.<br />
Seems to work for us.<br />
The simplicity of family<br />
Simplicity of trust.<br />
