Letter to my friend.





Dear Dee,

At last I write to you!
A letter of joy and laughter.
Sorry you had to wait for so long and still have hope to write more,
when the postman comes through the door!
Now it is leaving soon.
Look see! And yet another letter has come.
Here upon the mat.
Here I sit and dream that you too will bring the cat,
who sits so patiently on the mat.
Well now that’s the word to begin.
Take you by surprise and give a crafty grin.
We have so much news for you the lucky one.
 I too!
 Just wait for me to do up my shoe,
And go to the loo,
And then I’ll tell you tales that happened,
Of not long ago,
And tell the tale of broken bones, that make you groan.
Surprise, surprise I’m now on two feet,
And free to tell this story as it began,
And gave me no joy, but pain and grief,
Now I share my broken bones,
In the story that I have told.
I can at last walk on two feet,
Not as smart as I did dwell,
But I long to make me well,
So one day soon,
All will at last be complete,
With my hips and my feet.

Love from Margo xx
