Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in time, when this blog went by a different name using the old Misty Look theme (well, July 2011, but considering this blog only started in 2010 itβs almost as waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back as one can go!) I posted this as I had a particularly bad knee that day.
I havenβt got a bad knee today, but thought it would be nice to dust the cobwebs off this old post and send it out into the wide weird web once again.
For those who may be interested, I think the rhyme worked as I donβt remember the knee aching since. Everywhere else, yes, but not the kneeβ¦
I proudly present βOde to an aching kneeβ
Oh, knee, I ask thee why must thou throb
Whence I stand and walk or hobble
βTis fine whilst seated and after several steps
So why must thou caust me trouble?
A heat you bring within my leg
A warmth thatβs not so fair
Whence I happen perchance to walk
A steppe or two from here to over there
I ask thee knee, nay I beg of thee,
To help me on my way
I have no need for thee to throb,
So take thy pain away.
Oh, knee, kind knee, strong knee of mine,
Iβm grateful for thy support
Youβre part of me so you must know
The pain that brought these thoughts
My mind it says the pain has gone
My mind says this is true
My body agrees and all is well
Apart from the throb from you.
