Sidney Beck Poet Rhyme

Medical Miracles

MEDICAL MIRACLES



What happened to mad cow disease?
And bird flu from Thailand?  I ask myself.
Legionnaire’s disease?  Minimata?   E - coli ?


Did they succumb to medical expertise?
Or just disappear from the current-panic shelf?
Will you survive the next wave?  Will  I ?
