Poetry Corner May 2022

Welcome to the Poetry Corner!

This week’s poem was written by Catherine Prentice, Registered Nurse at Bethany Cochrane.

Caring

I wish you every comfort

As you settle now to sleep
You can do it all your own way
There’s no timetable to keep
I know that you can hear me
But can’t express your need
But you don’t need to worry
Every tiny sign I’ll heed
Any possible discomfort
I will soothe away
All love respect and care
That it’s possible to pay
Is yours for now and always
As it comes upon your time
And the privilege of caring
Is forever mine

    Music in your ears…

    The sound of my voice it may not be so pleasant to you
    But the memory that pass by in your life will reminisce so true
    Every words in my song might not catch so easily for thee
    But I know that you are there listening to me…

    The tapping of your feet and the body that moves freely
    Are the signs that I know you are connected to me
    I will sing the song even though your eyes are close
    Cause I know that your ears are listening to the tune of my voice.
