For Carry On Tuesday“How long have I been awake?
....................... Is it morning yet?"
INTENSIVE
Motorcycle accident
ICU treatment
In and out of consciousness
No recollection
Chatting with the specialist
“Looks OK to me”
Discharged; allowed to go home
Seven days ago…
Wandering about the house
Can’t find the bathroom
Unusual behaviour
Frightening our son…
It doesn’t seem possible
You say it’s the truth
‘First time’ meeting of old friends
Asking you your name…
Seems like only yesterday…
How could it be so?
The events of two weeks past
Forever a blur
How long have I been awake?
… Is it morning yet…?
powerful~ true story?
ReplyDeleteThanks Janet. Yes, true - I don't recommend it...
ReplyDeleteThat is where reality is but a dream! A scarey reverse state! Great poem!
ReplyDeleteThanks GT; More nightmare than dream, and scary is spot on!

ReplyDeleteThanks TFG; 5 years later... stil wondering/wandering.

very unique use of the prompt this week!
Thanks Amity; Sure it's a fight - but one from which victory is uncertain.
ReplyDeleteWell done Stan! I could picture it. I have known several people to have motorcycle accidents...and the verse gave me goosebumps.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peggy Jo; The goosebumps are the least of it... :)
