T’WAS THE NIGHT BEFORE SURGERY

by Nola Beeler – Anacortes, WA

T’was the night before surgery and all through the house, not a morsel was eaten – I was nothing by mouth

My warm wooly socks hung near the back door, in hopes I would see them at a quarter past four

Tom donned his nightshirt as I did the same; then we dubiously considered the sleep we might claim.

The alarm rang so loudly, so bold, and so clear

“DBS day is here, you have nothing to fear” .

So into the Honda – down the freeway we flew…your DBS is ready

HOW ABOUT YOU?
