Forgive me one and all
for this is not really a poem
but rather a thank you
for all your kind wishes
for my surgery last week:
total knee replacement.
Well I’m now back at home
and to my surprise
I get around the house
and up and down stairs
without the crutches
and little pain
but how I hate
the orthopaedic stockings
I have to wear.
I’m doing the exercises
and that is when
the pain does kick
but I can live with that
and I am determined
and soon I’ll be
back to normal
and waiting for:
Yup!!
the other bloody knee to be done.
