Hello, Nika This a delightful poem! And I really needed to read at this time. My best friend collapsed several weeks ago and was taken to the hospital, and still remains for a long course of therapy. His condition is stable but recovery will be very long. And so I find myself seeing many hospital rooms when I visit him, and paying attention to the paintings and photographs. Your poem captures both the wonderful dedication of the hospital staff and also acknowledges that we - patients and visitors - want to escape to an ideal place. Your poem helps me appreciate the care he's receiving, encourages me to be patient, and lifts my spirits. I'm glad I found this poem!
