Doctors
I have been waiting for so very long,
for the appointment I had today.
I was hoping for a diagnosis,
every single night I would pray.
Helping people reach wellness goals,
And at times praying for one more breath,
I bonded with patients,
And many families, whom were awaiting death.
I look back at my life,
and see how very many things have changed.
Mostly not for the better,
As many lives and struggles have waned.
Many people can pick up a pen
and paper, creating beauty in words.
Rasping life's tranquility.
I know. I have heard.
So how hard must it obviously be?
To diagnose and treat people you see?
For they have put their trust in you.
Your name is spoken in their prayers.
They are placing their life and well being, Gently in your care......by Lori Lynn
