Rather Cranky

Rather Cranky

A Poem by Barbara Walker
"

A poem to some of my health problems

"
I've had a headache for over four weeks,
I wonder if it has reached its peak?
It's making me feel rather cranky
and I've shed a few tears in my hanky.

The doctor ordered quite a few tests
and I've done my best to get some rest.
Are the pains in my back, neck and head trying to vie,
as to which one can make me give up and die?

Those suckers don't know that I won't give up-
life is overflowing in my cup.
They obviously don't know what I've been through for years-
they are amateurs and I have no fears!

Don't those b*****s know it isn't my time?
I'll just take the pain and put it in rhyme!
What doesn't kill me, makes me stronger
and I'm saying, I'll be around longer!

I had a headache for three months three years ago. I went to the doctors. No answers and a lot of drugs. I went to natural cures and they said drink one quart of cranberry juice for three days than a glass a day. In two days my headache went away. I needed a cleansing of body. I hope your answer is as simple. Headaches are a pain in the butt. I hope you are feeling better.
