Notes About The Poem

Just What the Doctor Ordered

Doc said put on this hospital gown Then remove your clothes from the waist down My bare tootsies she clocks As I’d removed my socks No need for that, she said with a frown! True story today - get my biopsy results in a month - got my fingers crossed ... wish I could have kept my legs crossed lol 3/19/19

I am astounded BREXIT made the front page and not a Brit removing her socks!Keeping your legs crossed on the Isle of Man is not healthy, Jan! Spread a little good cheer and it will all come back to you! Biopsies just help doctors pay the rent, so you'll be fine! Aloha! Rico
