HAIKU MY HEART: Beckoning of the Sky



peering to the west
the sky beckons me to pause,
give praise for this day

Hoosier Quote:
“Oh, the moonlight’s fair tonight 
along the Wabash, 
from the fields there comes 
the breath of new mown hay, 
Through the sycamores the candle lights 
are gleaming, 
on the banks of the Wabash, far away.”

The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
