World Mental Health Day

I wrote this for a nurse that was caring for me. WMHD was established 10/10/92 (Poem 6)

When will we ever learn
when will we ever listen
could we ever return
to listen in on the lesson.
A lesson for the mind
for all of mankind
with hope we are inclined
not to leave behind
those with a broken mind.
For on this day in October
as we all grow so much older
we think for those with Bi-polar
and the others with a similar disorder.
And for those that do suffer
it's a long road ahead to recover
yet we can find comfort in this universe
with help and a smile from our,
Mental Health Nurse.
