A Maternal Stressing

I love my Mother with all of my heart

But sometimes she seems worlds apart,

She has ailments and is so stressed out

Staying in and not getting out and about.

She is due soon for a left hip operation

Where she will aptly get much attention.

She is duly aging and getting on in years

And has her passionate, passing on fears.

 

Her Partner suffers from sad dementia,

A stressful type of some personal torture,

As at times he does not make much sense

And keeps my Mum unhappy in suspense.

Mum is not coping as well as she should

But she gets help which is duly very good.
