One Little Poem

One little poem stood on the line
Her little heart was pounding lub-dub, lub-dub
She looked at the light in the far, with beaming excitement 
She stood behind the line wondering 

When her day will come, to shine 
Waiting for her chance
Waiting for her fate 

Her little hands were trembling 
She looked at those machines and smiled
It had taken The WHOLE to create this little beauty
The prowess in her mind
The wisdom in her heart
The strength in her bones

Her little feet trembling
They were tempted to run, forcibly find herself with those in the front 
But she waited, trimming those edges, doing more last touches
For her day was coming

A very pretty write. I love the lub dub line, made me smile. Jen was a nurse and I became familiar and affectionate to this term. I'm glad that this one's day is today. Kind regards, Ian
