Wooden Heart

We lay together quietly arm in arm, the silence broken only by a little tune coming from somewhere outside, A metal collector's van driving slowly down the road. This would be the last time we would hold each other. A hospital bed arrived that afternoon and from then on I was your nurse. Now ten years on the van still drives past now and again, still the same little ditty "Wooden heart" playing as it slowly goes by. Our last hug still in my heart. Suzanne 10.02.2024
