Silver linings or Thank God?... 27/05/2020

Writer's picture: iand youmatteriand youmatter


Today we went to hospital


but they turned us right around


It moved to Gatwick park they said,


I tried hard not to frown


Mum was feeling frazzled,


she couldn’t keep her calm


It’s ok I said, It’s not too late thank god we brought the car


weather ‘s lovely, the county’s pretty. Its’ nice to take a ride


Those countries lanes are beckoning,


I think I’d like to drive


So in to my friendly Satnav


the postcode,


was tapped,


It almost didn’t get us there,


conked out as we arrived


We walked up to


the sliding doors,


life flashed


before my eyes


My RSI, and MRI,


hearing specialist I’d found


The surgeon man was walking out


as mum went through the door


They passed each other quick-ely


as I saw the nurses stand


I wonder if he remembers me


from two thousand and five?


I’m glad I don’t


need to repeat


those questions this time a-round


The ones’s he said I’m not qualified for


and left us feeling numb!!!!


I’d gripped my lips so frightfully


as I nearly fell down


on the ground


Thank god she had to lose that eye,


Thank god for NHS


Thank god it all went as it should and she’s out of all that mess




Today I was outside


and sat comfy


on the bench


and as I read,


oh how I wished,


I hadn't fixed my quench!


Mum went on


in all alone


and had a temperature check


Was it an hour gone so fast,


I pondered what the heck


We’ll drive on home, a take out lunch, I fancy Fish and Chips


So we called my hubby from mum’s phone


as we licked both of our lips!

About Me

I write about my struggles as a mum of a highly sensitive child and dealing with the education system.
