Health issues dominate
Aches and pains
PSA for me good: .041
Afib under some control
But we had a death in the family
Richard, Honorable Pop, retired
California Supreme Court Judge
died early this morning
5/10/2017
Headed division seven
Court of appeals Los Angeles country
Judge Richard Schaurer's story found
Metropolitain News-enterprise
The case of Bob Kennedy' assassin
Sirhan Sirhan
Thursday May 11, 2017
Fisherman, hunter, traveler
The world was his oyster
In his day a man of much importance
But at 87 his health deteriorated
Limited to Wheelchair
In the course of dying those who love him suffer
Once so strong fade away
The older you get Heaven's doors are open
Pain and pills dominate
Walkers then wheelchairs
So far I have avoided both
But not the pain
Two prostate operations and radiation
Good news for me Cancer free
PSA: .047 normal range
Morning finds me walking on wounded knees
Pain in hips for the moment gone
I need to hear some of my fellow poets reporting in
Many of us are searching Heaven for friends
Hope some of you I have not heard from lately
Are just off the site for a while
So far I wake up each morning
Take the prescribed pills
and face the day with a smile
I need to get this old body moving on chores
