AMBULANCE

"Ambulance"
With sirens keening, lights aflame,
A lifeline hurtles, swift and unashamed,
The ambulance thunders, a guardian true,
To rescue the fragile thread of life anew.
Like messengers of mercy, the paramedics descend,
With skilled hands and compassionate hearts that mend,
They coax the flickering sparks of life to glow,
And guide the wounded soul back to the world below.
But sometimes, despite the frantic pace,
The ambulance arrives too late, a heartbreaking space,
Where death has already claimed its own,
Leaving loved ones shattered, and a future overthrown.
The sirens fade, the lights grow dim,
As grief and sorrow wrap around the heart like a whim,
The ambulance, once a symbol of salvation's might,
Now stands as a poignant reminder of life's fleeting light.
But still it speeds, a steadfast heart,
Through city streets, where lives hang in the balance's every part,
A tribute to the hearts that beat for others' sake,
To the compassion that flows, a love that forges on, unbroken.
