Fortnight

My Doctor looked quite sheepish for he had bad news to give
He looked me in the eye and said I have two weeks to live
I thought about this long and hard, then told him with a sigh
I'll take a week in April and the other in July

This part resonated with my soul: "Spirituality is the key And I trust in all I see." Thank you for writing this, Marissa.

Hi Caren, I would be delighted if you liked my little ditty but I think you’ve somehow commented on my poem instead of one by ‘Marissa’. Just saying so you can direct your praise to the deserving person.
