Hooray
With a broken arm, there are many things
That I haven’t quite managed of late,
Like put t-shirts on, reach for shelves up high,
Carry items of any real weight.
Though my husband helps (cutting up my food,
Doing dishes and making the bed)
And my left hand tries to replace the right,
With results quite below par instead…
There are signs of hope, for I now can write,
Do some cleaning and - let’s hear some cheers -
After five long weeks, I feel more like me,
Since my earrings are back in my ears!
