This morning I got up and slipped,
And fell, and injured my left hip.
I got up and managed to detect
Some swelling – no other effect.
A neighbor and her husband kind,
Helped – to relieve my mind
That there was not a fracture there
(Though my walking was impaired).
To seek help at Urgent Care nearby.
The doctor could not a thing espy -
It's old age. I wish a clever gent
A pill for old age would invent...
