Birds Heard on a Hospital Ward

I heard birds in the hospital.

I thought their calls

Came to me through solid walls.

But the doctor said

The birds I heard where recorded sound.

Yet it was profound

For when I am dead

There will be no sound to hear

Of birds  or friend’s words.

I cast no shadow on the   ward

So will walk in sunshine

While there is time.

      Thank you for your good wishes, Vivienne. I felt that it was getting warmer yesterday, however, the temperature appears to have dropped again. I will certainly walk in the sunshine, when the sun does grace us with it’s presence!
