Hospital Blahs…
By Fee
In here the lights are never turned off
Dimmed but just enough that I can’t sleep
These beds so narrow I’m afraid to move
Nurses making rounds quietly creep
I close my eyes but the white noise pervades
Alarms, bells buzzers, bleeps and blips
So many wires hooked up to my chest
And a hose connects me to an IV drips
A nurse sweetly asks me can’t I sleep
Would I like a little pill to “Bye Bye Land”
Her smile melts my anger but I turn her down
It’s the sleep I fear that she don’t understand
Tests tomorrow so till then just rest your mind
This old heart of mine is aching all the time
Each time I end up back here in these beds
I wonder if I’ll see another morning shine…
Now a nurse shakes me and turns on a light
Mr Perry we need to take your blood work
Needles prod and she finally finds a vein
And because I flinched she thinks that I’m a jerk
Finally they tell me I am getting released
With Doctors’ letters, pills and dirty clothes
Hurry down the hall before they change their mind
I’m free again to write my wicked words of prose…
Love ya face Cuz XOXOXO, Rose

You should send this poem to the staff floor who took care of you that you where on!! They Post Stuff Patients Send Them On Their Boards! They Would Get A Kick Out Of This :)

I'm glad you're back home and doing well. Heart problems are not easy to deal with. We missed you while you were gone. My Mother is a nurse in ICU/CCU and sees heart patients quite a bit. She works nightshift and tries not to disturb her patients, but some things need done in the name of better health. She's been in the profession 30 years, this year, all at the bedside.
Get well soon,
Jill
