CLEAN SHEETS

Oh so simple
In that moment
I saw a sweet sight

My poor suffering sister
My lifelong friend
Whom I was losing

Smile

All I did was change the sheets
I, a nurse, to which
This act was
Elementary

Yet for my dear one
There on her deathbed
She smiled

“Oh DeeDee,
This is so wonderful”

Therese of Lisieux
The Little Flower
Taught us
About the “Little Way”

The simple ways
We can serve

Little did I expect
This little way
of helping my sister

Would bring her such joy
It is indeed
A memory I cherish
