I met Miss Jane
the other day.
I sat with her
She had lots to say.

In her room all alone.
She lives by herself
in a nursing home

Her body is weak
but her soul is strong.
How long will she be here?
Probably not too long.

She speaks alot
about her life
She was a mother
and a wife.

Her husband is gone
her children are there
But if you watch
do they really care?

They always ask her
what will I get?
When we finaly
put you to rest.

When I think
of little miss Jane
In my heart
I can feel her pain

Her disapointment
shows in her eyes
It will be there
till the day she dies

~If we didn't have any bad days, we wouldn't appreciate the good ones~

This one is soo... sad? I hope that I will never act in this way to my parents when I get older, lets this be a lesson to me!

Thanks for sharing this piece, I thought it was very beautiful to read.

Oh, wow.  What a poem.  It was very emotional to me personally because my grandmother is in a nursing-home-type-place and it reminded me of her.
