Hospital Lessons
i learned about humility
and hope
watching those
who take pain away
watched their duty
shed grace
as easily
as lifting an arm
applying ice
to wounds new and old
so that this old body can rally
once again.

ReplyDeleteA full hip replacement - gracious - that sounds so invasive, though, at least it's behind you now. That must be a tremendous relief.
ReplyDeleteA lovely homage to those tireless caregivers ... some of the most extraordinary human beings that I have encountered.
Wishing you a continual healing.
