The clock says 4:45.
I look at the nurse with uncertain certainty
His reply to my eyes is "yes his colour, is sure different."
He breathes again, a shallow breath,
Andrew's sobs fill the room.
I take their hands Andrew's and
my father's, " it's ok" I say,
"he knows you are here."
Together we breathe,
all of us
into new life.
