Life in My Eyes



 
Look at my face
Simply full of love and true grace
Look closer past the wrinkles of time
In my eyes, I am still in my prime
My body is feeble, tired, and old
However, my spirit remains tough and bold
My hands might be shaky and crooked to some
Nevertheless, how wise and sure I have become
I lay here watching the nurses and doctors work hard
They know I am willing to strive and do not discard
They see it in my eyes still so bright and full of trust
I am simply not ready for a sprinkle of angel dust
I want to thank the nurses for their loving care
I am so happy for life and the time I have to spare
