Curtain call

 

He who was once lively,
With a bounce in his step,
A ready smile for everyone and a kind word,
Is becoming more silent,
His body shrinking, becoming smaller each day,
Yet he still smiles,
Enjoys touches and affection,
Will even take a sip of coke but I think he does it for us.
His curtain is closing,
The part he played coming to an end,
Now all that remains is the waiting,
Giving comfort,
Being with,
It always comes to that in the end.
