Waiting Room
Warm wood paneling can't
Take the chill off
A depressing waiting room.
The earth tone walls
Attempt to keep you grounded.
But your mind can't help
But drift to the various stages
Of deseases there.
A multitude of scarves and wigs
Can't sheild the fearful faces
And anxious eyes.
The friendship of held hands
And smiles shared help,
But can't disguise
The waiting room.

  1. Don't you hate knowing why they use certain color schemes and accessories in a waiting room? Before they were just artificial backgrounds in your life you could ignore?

    So much depth to this poem. I love the anxious eyes and smiles shared.
    You are all on journeys together and share the bond.

    Hope you had a TGIF kind of day. So glad for friday on this end!!!
    Love, Amy
