The Lunchtime Poet
Poems
May 2016
My World Almost Died
The day you almost died
Was the worst day of my life
I honestly couldn't imagine
if you were no longer my wife
I saw you lying there
Looking so frail and weak
I leaned over your bed
And kissed you on your cheek
The problem was in your lung
Caused by a blood clot
On the other one
There was a little spot
The news was overwhelming
I honestly must say
I fell onto my knees
And I started to pray
I walked into our house
And you were not there
Sat down on our bed
At your picture I did stare
Put my head on your pillow
Eyes started to well
The lingering scent of you
What a wonderful smell
For a couple of days
It was touch and go
I'd be lost without you
This you had to know
After a risky procedure
And medicine you did take
Along with some help from the Lord
The clot it did break
With a new lease on life
A precious second chance
I will shower you with love
and fill your life with romance
