Time

by Joan Serratelli

Timing is everything
and the clock
is ticking

Every second counts
It brings her closer
to the end
I tell her each day
that things will be ok

SHE is who matters
the fetus she is carrying
is in question;
but , to me;
is secondary
HER well beinng
is my concern

Is FATE that cruel?
Only time willl tell
...and TIME is the
enemy

I pray for the best;
but brace myself for
the worst

...joan, a 'touchy' subject, well handled. the carrier's health precludes the health of the infant...good counsel. heavy decisions, eh?

I think this is a well written statement of how you feel about the current crisis. We're all facing tests aren't we?
