again the circle's drawing near to full
frail shrunken withered being lying there
within herself first felt the fetal pull
as one we were till birthed in light and air

and now my turn to feed the one who fed
and now my turn to lift who first held me
and now my turn to lead the one's who led
as spiral time and life as needs-must be

Hello Mike,

Such a deeply passionate poem with so much emotion! Your words ring true as we reverse roles in life, especially as our dear parents age.
I believe, as hard as it may be, that is what a good daughter or son does!

Very touching and genuine.
Thank you for sharing.

Lindi
