On a Wall

I have a velvet Elvis
right there on the wall.
Some say he was King
and greatest of all.
Love to hear him sing
His last curtain called.
Yet, I still see Elvis, 
right there on a wall.

Wow, Becky that is a Deep well. I worked in a hospital for five years. I couldn't do your job. If you think you have it bad, go there and see. Keep Rolling.

I sat with a dying patient in the Emergency Department one evening (I'm a nurse by vocation). She pointed to the wall, and I asked her what she saw. Said "Elvis is here!" Maybe he's now a guardian angel?
