Good Medicine


Back home from the hospital, grandpapa
spreads his arms wide.
The best meds
are free -
hugs.
Love
needs no
prescription
to be fulfilled.
It's a bless-ed thanksgiving homecoming.

Congratulations on your winning placement. Coming home from hospital to see those you love, getting into your own bed, is so healing.
