Poetic Verses
No Certainty
Life as always with its uncertainties can spring many surprises
The manifestations of those illnesses even their disguises
One moment there is a friend going along so fit and strong
Another time, there is the news that he is down.
A friend once was shocked and got so agitated
One being told that his cholesterol has elevated
Having followed a lifestyle of a strict diet and regular exercise
So obviously this new came over as a big surprise,
This most certainly bear some credence
When there was that saying about the deception of appearance
As one can get that good feeling about what is visible on the outside
There is no consideration for the dangers lurking on the inside.
Another person told me that one morning
He was awaken by the left hand tingling
Later that night was rushed as an emergency to the surgery
Underwent a bypass, as this was an obvious necessity
This news too had me surprise, so I had to sit
There was this guy, well honed and looking quite fit
Therefore in my mind, I ponder this question
Has his exertion dislodge something internal that may compromise his circulation
I always remembered two brother s, they were very happy
On was always exercising a sportsman, the other so flabby
Guess which one of them was the first to kick the bucket
The rotund one has not departed this world yet.
