My mother died October 2004. I never got to her in time when she was in the hospital the last time. I barelly got to my home town in time to see her before she was to be cremated. My first attempt at a sonnet.
Tick The clock crawls
Tock Time is drawing nigh
Tick For a last pause
Tock Before we die
Tick Waiting for the end
Tock Praying that the soul's
Tick Blessings portends
Tock Fates final scroll
Tick Angst ridden memories
Tock Washed away
Tick Graceful shimmering
Tock Watery waves
Tick Last Times arise
Tock To say goodbye
