Gratitude

After a rough night & morning
I put him to soak
In a bubble bath in the middle of the day
Wrapped him in his favorite xlarge green towel
Gently combed his hair
Tucked him in on the couch
Placed his ginger ale beside him to slowly sip

He said thank you, for being so nice to me.
My heart fell right out there on
The floor by the couch.
Next to the sick pot.
Bleeding.

I told him that's what Mama's do. Hugged him
& picked up my heart
Placed it next to him
And went to start the mountain of wash.
