Standing on the corridor
in front of my class in charge...
I saw him on his bike
outside the gate huge!
Waving to his friends old;
brought a smile to my lips;
had been a student here...
now had joined another!
Lively like a squirrel he is;
rhythm of music in his blood;
fashion is life to him;
A friend to his friends he is!
Evening brought the news-shocking!
his bike had betrayed him...
right under a bus he went
A sight horrible-they said!
Critical he was.....
Face fractured and swollen.....
Infection in brain-doctors diagnosed
A day needed to decide whether safe! !
A terrible day it was
to the institution previous....
offering and prayers united
came from young and old.
With the sun came the news;
He was past danger-they said;
but needed treatment continuous
and operations multiple!
A sigh of relief came from many throats....
thanked Almighty for
bestowing mercy utmost
in letting him live his life throughout...!
A nice heartfelt write feeling joy and sorrow in the plight of another. A good show of compassion and friendship. Nice.
