SEMI-CANELESS

SEMI-CANELESS

Regaining some balance is he,

But not quite effortlessly…

He walks, we found,

With his cane off the ground

But it’s there for stability!

He does the long hallway at work

But stops sometimes with a jerk…

Easily tires,

And perspires,

His feet occasionally hurt.

He’s slowly gaining ground,

Surgeon says he has to slim down…

To heal  a good measure

Needs to decrease the pressure

On the foot to make it sound.

THE DOCTOR WEIGHED MY OPTIONS

THE DOCTOR WEIGHED MY OPTIONS

You know what’s really not nifty,

Having scales weigh not over three-fifty…

His lesson was made,

My weight has to fade,

Or healing the foot gets iffy!
