Time To Slow It Down

Time to slow it down, Stops one from feeling down, And even gives one time to go to town. Time to slow it down, Reduces the need to frown, And lets one sit down, before you fall down. Time to slow it down, Even for a clown, Falling face down. Time to slow it down, Gives one less mistakes to own, And no reason to leave town. Time to slow it down, Before you end up on your own, With no time to atone.

Normally I heal quickly enough, but since I am on blood thinners, healing takes longer.

Been on holiday in Christchurch Victor. Some people I may have seen for last time. One day at a time, one poem at a time. While my blood is fine I am a bit more circumspect in getting out of bed and the only thing I consider racing for is the toilet. Have a great week enjoying stored memories or if you body lets you be more adventurous show them there is life in you yet and maybe write a poem about your adventures to give hope to others. regards as always David in NZ
