Paul Callus Poet Lanterne

Heartbreak

[A Double Acrostic Lanterne]

Hear
Each beat
As blood flows-
Rock-‘n-rolling  
Throbs
Beeps’
Rhythmic
Echoing
Aborts surgeon’s
Knife

Sara Kendrick April 5, 2019 at 4:36 PM Very interesting work for you have got two forms going on plus a good topic. I have often thought about how does a human heart stand up to a surgeon's knife to repair a defect or some other heart ailment. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara Paul Callus April 5, 2019 at 4:43 PM Thank you Sara. Hopefully a surgeon knows what he's doing, and a heart would be treated with 'gloved' hands! Regards // paul

Jan Allison March 23, 2019 at 6:31 PM Made me tear up Paul as mum now has an irregular heartbeat but hopefully the tablets will sort it out and she won't need any medical intervention - the heartbeat issue may account for a recent fall!:-( hugs Jan xx Paul Callus March 26, 2019 at 12:39 PM When my mum was like that she first was given tablets, but eventually needed a pacemaker. Hope your mum is more stable now, Jan. Hugs // paul
