Knowledge

I am still learning how to walk. I am also learning how to pick up tissues with my toes, a more difficult feat than I would have imagined. I can make my own hard boiled eggs.

Exactly a year ago

I was learning to walk

Again.

I took meals

With the rest

Of the physical therapy floor.

I was the youngest

By far.

I had a lot to learn

But then again

We all did.

I knew

What cranberry juice

And prune juice

Were good for.

Others knew

It was possible

To order hard boiled eggs.

We all

Knew different things.

Each thing

Made life

A little easier.

We laughed

And cheered

When the woman

With the broken hip

Went home.
