Cancer
that awful scourge
people gasping
in pain
there it was
a stream
smallest trickle
of hope
for some it offered healing
an Oasis
peaceful breeze
flowed into our beings
we waited not for death
but life
This minimalistic poem is about a real place (a hospital called Oasis) where I daily saw death and moment by moment saw renewal of life and spirit.
