Kimmy Holmes Poet ABC

Mr. Baskin

He's there, wheelchair
Hair combed, skin sweet
Like he's goin to church
But came to see me
And his woman, so dear
Always so near
I have moments I could fall 
Against this proud man 
But sturdy, trustworthy
Instead my hand


Kim Holmes, Nurse

Daver Austin October 15, 2008 at 5:00 AM Yes! I like this - from the wheechair standpoint - one gets both sides of the emotion though, and with a (projected) almost fatal sensation, that is, the piece is very thought provoking. Congrats on this little jewel. Love, daver
