A new sign
Rests above this poem
“Keep calm and
Don’t fall over”
For falling over
Is my latest new trick
Not like in the circus
But down the stairs
Or over my own feet
A new clumsiness
Changes in my vision
Increasing the worry factor
For one very dear husband
And renewed feelings
Of stupidity
Even though I know
It’s not my fault
It sounds so easy to
Keep calm
And not fall over
(Ps. This is a Saturday poem, on a Sunday!!!)


Kate – SO sorry you’re having this problem -hope you don’t injure yourself. I’m injuring myself a lot lately too, because I move and do things quickly and now I’m getting too slow and end up hurting myself. About 2 months ago I had 21 bruises on my legs from knocking my legs everywhere. I hurt my shoulder a few months too, ago requiring physio. I’ve never had this problem before either. damn!

Calm is good. I am projecting calm to you through Reiki. You don’t have to believe in it or even understand it. But I do, and it can do no harm.

Thank you Wendy… I love Reiki, and have been having some lately to help with a number of issues. I am able to do it too, and do so on my cats and kids! Feeling the love… xox

Dear Kate, if you were falling because of an inner ear difficulty, you wouldn’t feel stupid. No stupidity, just an imbalance of health. Keep calm and hang on to the banister or your hubby! x

Thanks for reminding me we can fall for other reasons… unlike an inner ear issue, this one probably won’t go away!! I’ll get used to it eventually I’m sure… x
