CELIA'S POEMS

No 225       October 28

I wish I had some good news,

But there has been no change,

He’s spending at least 22 hours in bed,

It really does seem strange.

I think it will take at least a week,

That’s what I’m banking on,

He started this last Thursday,

I hope it will soon be gone.

Everytime he comes downstairs,

I’m longing to see my Geoff,

But it just isn’t happening,

There’s been no change as yet.

He’s probably out of bed at most,

2 hours in the day,

I got a slice of toast in him,

It was hard to get down he did say.

I’m sure the next few days will see a change,

He’s my best friend and my pal,

I’ll get him right just here with me,

For him, no hospital.
