    The poem describes a person who feels they have nothing to show for their years of hard work, with disease slowly stealing their health of mind and spirit, leaving their eyes without glow and making them feel no smarter than a cow. They ask to be taken now, hoping that even without goodness inside, they could still nourish others as grass nourishes cows.

    Nothing to Show A Poem By Monica

    I have nothing to show for all the years of toil. I have nothing to show except that I now did in soil. I have nothing to show except my smile But even that would make you run away a mile.

    Patiently and tentatively, Slowly and with stealth, Disease has taken away all health. Not disease of the body mind! Just a sickness in the heart that tends to bind.

    How sad it is that it all went bad Now there is no reason to be glad. I have nothing to show Even my eyes have lost their glow.

    Take me now! Take me now! I have no better brains than a cow. But maybe like Daisy, I could nourish when all the goodness is sucked out of me. Indeed I may no longer have just nothing to show.
