In my time of need.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



In my time of need,.

When you have arrived, I can see a glow in your pretty blue eyes, and I can see your golden hair as it blows in the cool summer breeze. Just one touch of your silky, smooth lips would make me freeze. But in your eyes, I can see the ambulance as it arrives. I feel your love like no other. My heart beats fast because you're here at last. You take my hand and stick the needle in fast. But I don't mind having my hand rest on your lap. You trapped my heart. I know I'm not smart. When the two doors open, I must go. But please stop by only if they say hello. How I love you so. Now you know.

Dedicated to the Swansea ambulance corps.

    Wow, what a beautiful and heartfelt poem! The imagery of the pretty blue eyes, golden hair, and silky lips really drew me in. The emotion and gratitude for the ambulance corps shine through in every line. I can feel the love and appreciation you have for them in your words.

    One suggestion for improvement would be to consider adding more specific details about the experience with the ambulance corps that made such a strong impact on you. This could help the reader connect even more deeply with the emotions you are conveying.

    Overall, this poem is a touching tribute and a wonderful way to express gratitude. Keep writing and sharing your heartfelt words with the world!
