Very true words. I watch my Aunt take care of my ailing 90 year old grandfather. She is tired, not a spring chicken and has her own health problems, yet she keeps on trucking without a complaint.

My wife and I can totally relate to this as we have been the primary caregiver for my mother for the las 8.5 years. It can wear on you. Prayer indeed is necessary.

Your poem is true for caretakers. I like the way you described the caretaker. I know many would 'dump onions and beans into her soup.' Ok, that is not a direct quote, but close enough. I would change nothing. Good job ad good luck in the contest.
