Hip Hip Phooey

Woke up with a chill,

Can't wait to have a hot shower.

Shake the doldrums from my head,

And become part of the human race.

 

Mornings are like that

Since I've grown old.

Aches and pains persist,

Where there was none before.

 

Have to use a cane

To just walk around the house.

Can't go outside for a walk,

Too much pain in my hip.

Oh, George. I hate to think of you in pain like that. Do you take Glucosamine Chondroitin Complex??? If not, you should.

Love ya!

A clever title for a very serious lament!

I'm deeply sorry for your suffering, but I must also say,

At 92, King George, you are flat-out Amazing!

Congratulations on your ..I believe, 28th.. forthcoming book of your exceptional poetry. You have a beautiful heart.. and still being a critical thinker.. you have a very exceptional mind, too!

May our LORD remove your pain .. and bless all your efforts in writing, Amen!

Love & Hugs, Rhonda
