Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of someone recovering from spinal surgery

Six-Word Couplet Series Encore

Husband's Surgery  
Spinal surgery blues
No longer grooves  

Wife's Role  
Fix all meals
Issue out pills  

Rainy Day Effect  
Rain shower's rhythm
Rainbow's colorful prism  

Hallmark Movie Afternoon   
Christmas season entertainment
Joy goal's attainment  

Deep Snores From Husband's Chair  
Princess sawed away
Husband's blocked airway  

Hope For The Future  
Get well soon
No more prunes

Charlie, The pain pills and the effects of being put to sleep for surgery causes bowel problems and about the only thing that will help is prunes and prune juice. He is doing better now so we can leave off the prunes. I know he is glad. Sara
