braising thoughts arose as my lifeless
body huddled in a fetal position i' d completed
thirty hail mary's an yet my macerated flesh
lay still as the sun began
to settle embedding itself almost oh how vain i was
thinking merely of beauty
my beauty taken in an instant on impact
how selfish i was addressing the father how dare you
why this isn't living an yet you promised
i shall die and live i doted on you believing every word
like a faithful child twitching kicking the paramedics
oh what a bad patient scolding the rescue workers
for saving my retched life
do they not see the father in view are they blinded
by the light the sullen hue
that consumed my being torn flesh from my face
ah in my lowliness my wisdom edified
as st anthony strolls by in a distant glare mending me
this sereme endeavor captured
my solace for peace although there was no peace
in my living i'd wandered deeply from earthly realms
a gentle peace in my dying bestowed me
i glanced at the road that swallowed me whole
leaving no sign of life it was then st theresa whispered
you are his child quickly i responded
oh no ma'am i'm not with child thinking only of my figure
she smiled a warm glow and whispered yet again
you are his child she gestured to another woman
st cicelia quite childlike to my eyes
she chanted you are woman you are child
do you understand i responded amidst my sufferage
for the sake of his sorrowful passion
i over stand his divine mercy
For My Mother and My Dayghter

I whispered, “ Mom, I’ll take you home.!
No nursing home halls will you walk, all alone.
Your bedroom, at my house is bright and all ready.
And to care for you, Mom, my hand is steady!”
Elena, my daughter, an Angel in disguise.
Played an equal part, young, but very wise!
I recall the fear when Mom’s heart stopped!
I jumped on her bed, began CPR non- stop!
Elena, at the same time ,called the paramedics .
I kept working on Mom, I felt I needed a strong anesthetic.
They shared, it was me, not they, who saved her life…
“Most people usually stand there and don’t do thing!”
So if you do not know CPR, please take a course.
One need not be old for their heart to suddenly stop.
Instead of writing poetry or prose all day?
Learn CPR, don’t let a friend or relative pass away.
My Mom lived for eight more great and full years~
For that! I am most grateful, yet I miss her still. With tears.
Dedicated to my Daughter, Elena, and to my late Mother.
We always watched out for, and cared deeply for each other!
I remember, oh how I remember
The days were now long gone.
Oh. How we loved to meander
Along the paths that winded
The slopes of our hill sides,
Where fragrant firs and larches
Embellished the surrounding hills.
Oh, how I remember the ambience,
The exotic finches flying from tree to tree,
Their luscious serenades echoing around,
While my love and I would stroll over cobbles
Our hands entwined in limitless love.
We’d kiss and hug as we would stop
To hear the lullabies of the finches fine.
I remember, oh how I remember
The day we went to a large store
When she suddenly fainted and fell.
The trip to hospital was long and traffic
Was congested. I held her hand while
The paramedics did their best. What was wrong?
She did not survive. Dreadfully, I could only cry.
The entire world starts to shake, uncontrollable every which way
A terrible event, first one ever, eyes unfocused, body quivers
Balance banished toward the floor, clenched teeth blood bitten tongue
Ground no memory anymore, though said my body looked possessed
Guttural sounds in escaped breath, foaming mouth dripping lips
Time escaped no measurements, choking on life itself
Finally the quaking stops, eyes open in unknown blurriness
Body weightless drifting above, fingers and toes clenched in claws
Wracked with multiple after shocks, confused about what it was
Paramedics arrived in 911, rushed in an emergency red lights above
Thoughts thinking but unable to recall, waiting alone in hospital rooms
Wheeled down into this room that holds a large tunnel white tomb
Feeling that death loomed, sometime very, very way too soon
My 40 year first seizure, my 40 year brain cancer the news
All my lifes luck used when I heard days later, benign tumor
And still running on that same luck today...

Sorry your kids can't come into
school today
As all the teachers are out on strike
wanting better pay
So are the doctor's and nurses and
paramedics as well
If you are sadly unfortunately feeling
unwell or have any form or other of
medical emergency or have an untimely
fall
As they also want a fairer living wage
to take home at the end of the month
And even if you wanted to go anywhere
and don't have your own car
I am also sorry to inform you that both
the buses and trains are currently out
on strike as well
So it seems like nobody is going anywhere
at the present moment in time
Because you can't or may be unable
to go or get anywhere anyways
And chances are no one will be there
or is probably at and manning their
work stations anyway
As everyone and everyone seems to
be currently out on strike
Seeking and searching for better pay
come what may
Only problem is nothing seems able
to be or is getting done for all and
sundry
And the negotiations between both and
all parties concerned
Don't seem to getting or going nowhere
either
Because and after COVID there
is hardly little or no money left in the
pot we are more so in debt since
world war II
I died,
For a few moment,
Then I got revived—
I wonder why?
C P R
Ambulance, Paramedics
Open heart bypass surgery,
Echo Scan
MRI
Cardiac rehab
Now I live again…
I don’t know why?
Dying was easy…
One moment I was alive,
The very next,
Poof ! Gone!!
It was pure bliss
Unaware I was dead.
They say all their prayers worked.
I was lucky
It was a miracle.
God has a purpose for making me live again …
But who wanted to live any longer.
Being dead is better
than dying of old age.
The hustle and bustle of life
will not change
The brouhaha is never gonna end,
What I’m gonna do more now
that I didn’t do in the past 70 years—
So why bother living anymore,
It will be same o, same o.
There’s no lure of life left
No longing for living,
Life now lacks luster
holds no lust, no laughter,
Just lingering on in a limbo.
Now, death lurks in the shadows
with a smug little smile.
I was ready; it was my time.
Now I wonder
when is my opportune moment,
I am tethered to life,
No longer free,
Bogged down under pressure
to prove that it was all worth it.
When a new day dawns
and a shimmering sun
came looking for me,
It will be alright
if it finds me nowhere!

I have no idea what compelled me
To wonder what my future held
The craze about finding my tomorrows
To view delivers meld
So I decided to decipher my wants
To a Highland Seer I went
The desire to dispel my haunts
Kawasaki 500 sent
v
Sit down and close your eyes
Put your palms on the table
Whilst I shuffle your future be
And allow the cards to enable
.
Silence befell my ears
Thrilled, he spoke about my past
All through my childhood years
To be honest, I'm left aghast
v
He smiled at me as he wrote
Requesting I read it later
He wished me on my journey
This Seer, my future translator
Good evening, from the Highlands News
As we report on a roadside crash
A Kawasaki 500, has left the road
An Ambulance in Emergency dash
To the Hospital the News Crew followed
Having caught up in this saddened case
They were told of what was told inside
In tear fear fold explained
In pain, he whispers into the Paramedics ear
Please read this letter to me
On the opening of the envelope
There were no words to read
.
If John hadn't died because of drugs, he would've turned forty-nine today.
If John hadn't died, his fiftieth birthday would've been just one year away.
The paramedics had planned to perform CPR but they saw it was something John didn't need.
They quickly learned that performing CPR would've done no good so they did not proceed.
Sadly, John had died and he went to be with the Lord.
His arm was sticking upward, he was as stiff as a board.
I learned about the circumstances of his death from the people who he lived with.
John had done me wrong before he died and the time has come for me to forgive.
I had to threaten him with legal action because he'd been coming in my house and swiping some of my medicine.
I informed him that I'd have him arrested if he came on my property again.
Because of taking drugs, those drugs turned out to be John's noose.
Sadly, he was destined to die because of his many years of drug use.
[Dedicated to John Brown (1970-2019) who died on June 3, 2019.]
that year when I turned fifty, we had a cause for celebration
our new house was almost finished, it's had a brand new renovation
when the work was finally over, and the last few touches done
It's going to be our forever home, this really is the one
just twelve months after moving in, our dreams went up in smoke
I came home to find my husband, he'd had a major stroke
this was such a shocking tragedy, to find him on the floor
once I'd called the paramedics, I knew I could do no more
I went with him to the hospital as he struggled through the night
I prayed that he'd keep on breathing and not give up the fight
I knew life would be altered, and things would have to change
but until I knew the outcome, I didn't know what to re-arrange
the day they let him come home, I was so relieved at heart
I knew our life had changed, but we had to make a start
he was now a wheelchair user, and he needed full time care
we had to hire a carer, because I worked and wasn't always there.
and so began the next stage of us getting back on track
with hubby going to rehab, to try and get some movement back
we faced an uphill battle, I was unsure if I could cope
but I loved my husband dearly, I would never give up hope.
On a normal day the sun shining,
Riding in my Jeep with you beside me.
Looking into your beautiful eyes,
I look forward and from the corner,
Of my eye I see a car coming,
Ramming into us,
Glass shattering,
Pushing us over the hill,
Falling falling, looking long enough,
To see the love of my life,
Go thru the windshield.
The pain in my head is excruciating,
I feel the blood running down my face.
I reach out, calling her, she isn't moving.
I call her name over and over.
Then suddenly I hear her moaning.
I tell the paramedics,
Slurring my words....her first.
They load us up, where is she??
The paramedics tell me she's right here,
She grabs my hand, baby I'm ok.
The paramedics tell me it was just,
Lucky there was no glass,
In the windshield that saved her,
I hear the paramedics call out,
We're losing her, I whisper I Love you.
All the lights fade as I hear,
My love screaming Don't leave me,
I Love You, Bring her back, begging.
Days go back I open my eyes,
Hearing a voice pleading to
Bring me back, the most beautiful,
Woman looking down upon,
Crying and kissing me.
Then I look and see the
Dread in her eyes.
Don't worry baby you will walk again.
I look at her seeing the pain in her eyes,
And my whole world comes,
Crashing down.
Her shirt is bloody.
The nurse looks at me and says,
She wouldn't leave,
She was here everyday reading to you,
Telling you she was in love with you,
And she would never leave you.
One day you will stand and watch,
Her walk down the aisle,
Marrying the love of her life.
Your love is everlasting.
Your road to recovery will be long,
But have faith she will always,
Be by your side.
