PATIENCE IS STRUGGLING TO SUBDUE IMPATIENCE

Other than spending time with family and friends and
Catching up with errands, this has been
A quiet-wait-and-see week for me
Blood test taken Friday (Ravi, who came along, said:
Don’t worry, Gramma, I’ll hold your hand and
You’ll be brave). So cute!
Yesterday, I had an MRI of my brain, and
Was brave on my own—well, not really as
Will accompanied me—So now, outwardly
I’m patiently awaiting results—Ha!
Deeper truth suggests impatience is naturally awaiting
A thumbs up or thumbs down from the radiologist
And while I’m in this holding pattern, my brain wants to do
Little more than spend time with family and friends—
Clean a closet and reorganize a junk drawer—
Why?  Because love soothes the soul and reorganizing
Closets and drawers offers the mind a sense of control
So hopefully, today’s intuitive train of thought offers
You sound reason to understand why Annie and Joseph
Will remain lip locked on center stage for
A bit longer than I’d originally planned ...
