Hydrotherapy In Action

>Hydrotherapy pool in action

Now the blue sky has vanished, I must go out you know.
That will be the signal, for God to make it snow.
I wonder why he does do it?  I asked for it not.
I did for the Lotto numbers, alas them, I have not got.
Should I ask for good health?  Well of course I am alive.
But heaven knows what those surgeons, finally left inside.
But still I am a lucky one, as what's left is still alive.
Okay, I have some pain and as days pass, it surely thrives.
But honest, exercising walking sideways, in the hydrotherapy pool.
Sideways steps seem to Him above, not to really enthrall.
Nor does it blinking me, as I sidestep down the street you see.
I bet you wonder, what's wrong with me, watching me sidestep, can't you see?
I am doing my exercises as I go, to the shops, for food you know..
As marching on just one spot, will not get me far, will not.
So as the exercises, what I got, said sideways walk.
I guess I must, it's all I've got, I have no time to stand and talk.
Okay I did get another one, drowning a flotation aid board, which was not fun.
As down the street I found not one, so sideways walk I have begun.
Now I must go on my way.  I've another appointment at hospital today.
And who knows what is ahead?  I might be balancing on me head.

I did write another poem about my first visit, I have given copies to both the nurses/ physiotherapists  that were in the vicinity of the hydrotherapy pool.  However not having permission to mention their names, yet.  I cannot let you see that poem, can I?  I'm sure you understand.
As to the date, well that's another appointment with the hospital physiotherapist who are trying their best to get me more mobile. And as i am not nurse or physiotherapist name dropping here, letting you see this poem early won't hurt, will it?
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell you here but I spent all Friday afternoon grandson sitting, and setting up a You Tube  video .  I'm sure you're all more knowledgeable on that subject than I so if you manage to get on You Tube and  put my name in Stanley  Harris, then either look for a book cover with a white Alsatian called Smarty on it.  Or a picture of a blue Volkswagen Caravel also with stickers on the side mentioning Smarty Search and Rescue Dog.  Enjoy the picture video and song, I did.  Have a nice day whatever you're doing.  Bye Stanley.  (The mad Author)<
