I do have a heart

Should be a serious post but I am obsessed with finding humor in all things...


Poem Artwork

I felt a band of pain
Across my chest
Hubby drove me to the ER
I was hooked up
Right and left
To a monitor for my heart
EKGs and sonograms
Of my right leg
And my heart
Told me that I do indeed
Have one, It is a body part
That is where it should be
And it beats
And is doing fine
After an angiogram
They can rule out blockage
And I'll not have to whine
It is scary and it is weird
The nitro patch gave me
A pain in the head
But I'm glad I got tested
And am out of that hospital bed

That is good news. If you don't have laughter in you, it is a sad world to face every day.

You are looking great, and writing great as well.

I'm of the same bent, Lynn--I can seem to find humor in almost anything...

And I'm glad all went well for you in this scary situation.

Entertaining write,

Wendi
