GratitudeA Poem by Chris ShawA breakthrough, what those moments can do for you.
So unexpected through the maze
and from the confines of her bed, at last a pathway clears the haze. Was it something that I said, that made her stretch to touch my hand? Her head leaned forward, not a word, I heard her laughter as it broke. Through all the smoke that fogs her mind, the unkind battles she has fought. I never thought once more I'd see, my Mother's eyes smile back at me.
