My Foolish Heart
My foolish heart has stuttered out of whack
And trailed off a regular beating track.
With smoking it did not align,
With drinking it did not comply,
Got sick of those and had a heart attack.
The surgeon triple bypassed it alright,
Unblocked the pipes and sewed it nice and tight.
With meds and zest for life combined
Smoking and booze it doesn’t mind,
My foolish heart tick tocks with renewed might.
