My mind is of a blank
Nothing I can do or should
I am not in charge,have not control
Just lying here,the light too low
Print too small,the Penguin pages fading brown
Not black and white;orange back in crumple.
What to write when mind a blank
Do I think of green-wood trees
Limes in linden-lea,stung with summer bees
Friends in terracotta streets,magnolia walls
Gossip tea rooms,diesel,fish and chips,
Rejoin the conversation I left ten days a go
Unchanged as always.
Family calls and telephones
Jack's coal black eyes sat at my feet
Thunder clouds and butterflies
Waiting for the rain?

Damn, I remember that feeling so well...I don't know what happens to our brains in hospital...they turn to pulp and we lie around like obedient zombies...HLOL...took books but don't think I managed to read any...
Glad you're back home now and it will become a distant memory... GBHs...XXX -

Sounds about right. I think all wards whould have pictures of English woodland and country vistas to dream on while the brain is on a go slow.

The ward I was in could not have been better
It's times like that when you can draw on your lovely memories
