Midnight Ramble by Paul Howlett
Returned, a re-tread
Returned to bed
Sent home
Exit from hospital
Gall bladder removed
Guts improved
All is right
All is wrong
My side started
To bleed…
Was it red, no no
It was green
I ask why it is so
The bile is on go
The guts are all wrong
Return to the source
Return to the place
Return to the hospital
There to face
Repair of the first
Wheeled off to the op room
But wait…
Patients are there
Tis very late
The op room was busy
Returned, I had to wait
Till 3 am for my surgeon
This is a little poem I wrote after spending some time in hospital in the last ten days. I am now well on the way to recovery.
