Rockbottom Poem. MS and falling

Because I fell, I wrote a poem!! Having MS is not easy. Weak, wobbly legs, stumbling daily. I've only fallen a few times, so lucky!! But it happened recently. Landed on my daughter's big, plastic, hard boat! Ouch!!!

I'm not planning on falling again!!!

Rockbottom

The leaves fall with barely a sound

Presenting the earth with a colourful crown

The rain falls with a watery thrill

Saturating land forced to rebuild

A waterfall plunges headlong down

Pounding an already battered ground

I fell with an almighty thud

Scattering toys in a playful flood
