The bear room


Healer of all, come blessed one,

Come by this hospital
Where brave children
Speak in the foreign language of their bodies.

Come by this room they call the ‘bear room’,
Where my daughters led the way
In their dis-ease.

Come by their beds
And whisper into their sleep
As they drift off to dreamland.

Come by their hearts
Where the greatest of stories
Are yet to be unfolded.

Come by my side
When you’re all done
And teach me to heal.
