Angel Sammy and Teddy gave us this photo as inspiration for Poetry Day
We have to go the doctor's today Timmy his mom said
Timmy didn't want to so he hid under the bed
By the time she got him out they were late
Which was terrible news since doctors have so much on their plate
They sat in the waiting room as time passed by
Timmy was so bored he wanted to sit and cry
His mommy saw the hobby horse and told him to give it a ride
And he liked it so much he stayed there for all the time required
Minutes became hours which became days
While Timmy kept riding away
Until he was finally seen for five minutes and sent home
They had been there longer than the rise and fall of Rome
They had been there so long they had greatly aged
And from their seats they could not get unengaged
His mom had no choice but to drag him home
He rode his pony, now with white hair on his dome
A trip to the doctor is now so full of strife
To get in the exam room you have to waste your life.
Hmmm. We fear Timmy would be looking even older had he been using the National Health Service in the UK...
