Broken, torn, and bruised,
clothes shredded beyond repair.
There I lay in total despair,
tear-stained cheeks displaying misery.
Sirens screaming - transporting me safely
Doctors diagnose and nurses give aid.
Home I go, no worse for wear ~ debt repaid
Dinner - cold and chewy,
piled dishes drip with goo,
children crying with winter's flu,
phone keeps ringing, answers demanded.
Bedtime - a place to lay my weary head,
husband's cuddles slowly easing my mind.
Sweet love is found beneath sheets ~ life renewed

Outstanding
This poem reflects daily life that at times can be stressful and unexpected. I liked the details you included, the accident, the children with flu and the ending when you find a sense of peace after a hectic day. Best of luck in the contest.

Peace and comfort in the hands of one of the best, your husbands...wonderfully penned.
Good luck

There is a lot of drama in this poem, it rushes me right along in the ambulance ride with you and breaths a sigh of relief as you rest in your husbands arms.
Best of luck in the contest.

Though I love the metaphor, I don't feel any solid rhythm here. But I'm glad at the end of the day, all is well.

Beautiful
This one is great. Heartfelt i think.
I feel this way about my wife too. You can be in a world of panic and anger or sorrow and its that one persons touch that can take it all away.
