Poem
THANK YOU FOREVERMORE Everywhere you step That is where I am With my oxygen hose Under your feet again When you are walking into a room My oxygen hose catches your eye You see it dragging on the ground As you gently step over it to get by It seems to be continual To always be in your way Everything you do for me You do it every single day You cook, you clean, you wash You sweep, mop and much more Making sure it is all disinfected For anything coming in the door On top of it all you are my friend Always showing me that you care Like the times you take me places While pushing me in a wheelchair You sprinkle spices on all my food Making everything taste just right You even make sure I’m breathing As I am sleeping through the night I remember dancing back in the day To the song of Precious and Few We went separate ways after that So thankful to be routed back to you We had dance classes not long ago You remind me at times with a twirl While you wear your special smile You do make me feel like a little girl I appreciate our times shared now While watching a TV documentary Or YouTube songs, a Family Feud Or even all those reruns of Al Bundy One of my really favorite things Is when you take me for a ride You set everything up for me to sit And share our friendship side by side I apologize for all those things I did Or what I said to push you away From having a drink or living with me Even how together we used to pray I don’t know if you’ll ever read this I’m bound to be on your last nerve By crying or saying the wrong thing Surely something you don’t deserve You’ll always be my best friend Because I feel so close to you Hopefully you’ll never forget me When our life together is through Also the sprinkles of hugs and kisses Will remain a memory in my dreams I want to THANK YOU FOREVERMORE For all you’ve done beyond extreme Florence McMillian (Flo)
