MY THEORY DISPROVED

MY THEORY DISPROVED

I had a special theory

That doctors and caretakers weary

Really quick

Of being sick

Turning their caretakers bleary.

I’m a caaretaker myself,

Acting no more like  bad elf…

With sick time gained

I’m quite well-trained,

Not caught up in myself!

Milford-Franklin Eye Care,

A lady technician there…

Says I was great

As a patient candidate,

Must be that Franklin air!

I even let the wife wrap my foot,

She does it her own way  but good…

I can’t reach

My toes, not each.

But she has understood!

WINTER’S ARRIVAL

WINTER’S ARRIVAL

 

At about eleven PM

Eastern Standard Time…

Our rain turned into snow,

A slippery, slushy rime.

Worcester, Mass., is getting

What was promised all along…

What was originally wetting,

Turns into a Christmas song.

The flakes are getting bigger

As I monitor CCTV…

My relief is coming, I’ll go on my round

And I hope that is safe for me…?
