One

I must lift your leg
The slightest move triggers pain
The cries,-heart-wrenching

Dear Cheri, Thank you so much for reading. I am getting ready to try writing new material. It has been a long time. These are old poems about and for my wife who broke or rebroke her leg years ago. We recently came across this material, and it brought back memories. I wrote at least a poem a day during several months of recovery, and we look at the time as a period of art therapy.
