Left big toe

This may sound odd to many, but I have been hobbled with neuropathy since last spring, particularly in my left foot. This afternoon my left big toe moved a little. Party-time!

Sometimes progress
Comes in millimeters
Like this left big toe
I have stared at
For months.
I will it
To move.
Today it did
A millimeter
Mind you
But a millimeter
Counts for something
It shows why
Willing
Waiting
Watching
Are important.
I would not have seen it
Without
Those three things.
Today I did.
Tomorrow is
The left big toe party
We will tie a ribbon
Around it
My son will come
To make dinner.
