Trish N Joan
Trish n Joan
In life you sometimes do see,
A person almost identical, gee,
The funny laugh the little quirks,
One like the other smirks,
almost identically,
then one is drawn to the other,
Greenslopes hospital to die for one,
Age difference of a daughter and mother,
But strangers definetly seem to come,
One soul two people see,
Together, one set free,
Nursed by the other one,
She smiles at death and leaves,
Her alter ego grieves,
Remembers well this one,
I told the nurse that Joan had fish,
Goldfish in the swimming pool,
A loud voice in Trishs’ head,
“Said they’re Koi you bloody fool,”
a connection overruled,
Joan had the last word said,
Death aint no barrier, cool!!!
