Wailing Boy

The other day I lay for an echo of my heart The technician scanned my chest and sides I could hear my heart pant aloud Oh boy! Was that a chugging train, a distant wail, water gurgling, or a rhythmic rub inside an empty tub? The guy sure was at frantic speed wailing all the while Thank the Lord He has made sure we never hear the perturbations of this friend of ours labouring inside each of us all twenty-four hours
