My Heart Attack
My life seemed so hectic with too much to do
I wondered if I could find sometime just for you
I was rushing around at such a fast pace
It seemed that my life had become a long race
Then came that day that gave me a scare
And the realization that some people care
A massive pain came right across my chest
A heart attack followed one of the best
An ambulance was called and off did I go
Blue lights a flashing no time to go slow
A series of tests, blood samples and more
Numerous drugs to try and ease the score
An angioplasty found out the cause
A blocked coronary artery no time to pause
In went the stent inflated in place
Now the blood was flowing at a heck of a pace
Off back to the ward feeling quite hearty
A quick change of clothes, then off to a party
My daughter’s reached 40, all the family were there
They all seemed concerned, when I let down my hair
My heart was much better now the blood flowed right through
A quick dance with friends and a pint of good brew
I will now tread more carefully and ease off a bit
If not my daughters will both have a fit
