In Retrospect Poem by Lindsey Wolf
In Retrospect
One year to today,
And there I would have found you
In that hospital bed where you lay,
Suffering, your only digested food.
I could see your pain.
Affliction, both body and soul.
And I could not stop the rain,
The Shepherd sheathing the lamb’s wool.
And I would have given all of me
To spare you from that hell
Clouded eyes, still cannot see
Why the tolling of the bell took you from me…
