I know from my own experience-how frightening-sad and lonely it can be
at night-on a hospital ward Sinome and your poem reminded me-completely-of my last stay in one! Beautifully written! Chris.

The essence of your ordeal is conveyed so completely here. I hope you're feeling better, it's a pleasure to read your wonderful poetry again! I especially liked the line "that which we don't know and just feel".

a hospital ward at night can be very intimidating..one of our residents was
recently hospitalized for about a week, and I sat with him on one 11p.m.-7a.m. shift (our hospitals are so short-staffed, they appreciated us being with W. 24/7
...I don't mean to make light of it, but W. wasn't the only one hallucinating or hearing things that night...I was so happy to see 7a.m. roll around...Sinome, you've captured the feeling so well..

You most certainly captured the noisy silence of a hospital at night…You drew me in completely and I was taken back to a time when that might have been me listening to the sounds and soundless. Great write! Hope you're healing up nicely from your surgery....

Hello .. I'm glad to know you are doing well after your operation and feel bad that I did not know of your illness until tonight. I thank you for your warm wishes for my health. As Alway's .. I enjoyed reading your poem!
