I Left My Purse On the Chopper

It is day number twenty-one. I've been awake for a week, I think. The ride in the chopper was fun... But my hair never slept a wink! I love how the Universe speaks. The tap on the shoulder, a whisper From angels who know time has ceased Asleep, til her prince just kissed her! A tragic event - I might die But i woke up and everyone smiled. The husband and kids by my side, The Universe bearing a child. The Doctors and Nurses from God, Who helped me get back on the hopper, Discharged me with twenty prescriptions, But I left my purse on the chopper!!

Having had a heart atack in 2004, I can feel your words... except for leaving my purse on the chopper, that is. I left it in the ambulance and my wife had to run it down for me. lol Another good un! Thanks... <><

Karen, I don't know whether to laugh or say, "Oh, dear Lord, are you alright??" I guess, both. Is this a true story? Do tell. Loved this bit of imaginative writing if it's not true. Blessings, Donna G.
