We brought you home to us from hospital
In hope to have some time, however short,
To say goodbye with heartfelt words of love -
But swiftly did those hours we'd fancied days
Elapse before the waning of that link
Which kept communication possible
Transpired, to be succeeded by a sleep
In which no pain afflicts the slumbering soul
So easefully allowed to near its end.
The waiting and the hoping are so hard
To undergo before their term expires.
