Rommy, in honor of a very helpful family member in honor of his Herculean efforts, is using "It's a dirty job but someone has to do it" as this week's optional prompt. I am trying to answer her challenge. So follows:
The Sore
I have a bad sore
'ts'on on my upper leg
Doc said irrigate
smother with this salve
So I went to work
tried to dab it on
Hit and miss up, down
here there, miss my nose
Meanwhile sore has grown
hoeing tender place
Dabs here and dabs there
those dabs ever hurt
Neice feeling for me,
"uncle might I help?"
" I see where to dab"
much better I felt
Smiling Neice popped up
no bit embarrased,
"It's a dirty job but
someone has to do it"

It's always good to have family members who care for us near by. I hope it heals up soon Jim.
